Summer Public Interest Fellowship Program–FAQ 

UHLC has a long history of subsidizing student summer work for local non-profit employers. This highly competitive program was greatly expanded in 1999 with a generous grant from the Houston Endowment. With their support, UHLC was able to quadruple the number of annual fellowships and add government employers as a placement option. In 2024, the Law Center financed 28 summer fellowships.

Students are responsible for choosing the agency, arranging their placement, and submitting all required applications and forms by 11:59 pm on Sunday, March 23, 2025. Please read through the FAQ below for eligibility requirements and detailed application instructions.
