Fellows spend two years in the program, after which they are awarded an LLM degree in Advocacy. During the first year, fellows try cases and develop their public defense skills under close faculty supervision in the criminal clinics. During the summer, they take classes in clinical teaching and supervision and begin to develop their skills as clinical teachers. The Fellowships provide a stipend (taxable) of $70,000 in the first year and $75,000 in the second year, with benefits, in addition to full tuition and fees. Qualifications Applicants must have completed their JD degree by Spring 2026 (or earlier). Participation in the Fellowship is contingent upon admission to the District of Columbia Bar.
