The Career Services Office is pleased to announce the 2011 Study Break Public Service Stipend Program. This Program is designed to provide stipends to fund public interest and government internships for a select number of first- and second-year UT Law students. The 2011 CSO Study Break Public Service Stipend is open to current 1Ls and 2Ls (Class of 2013 and 2012, respectively). A student may not receive academic credit and a stipend simultaneously, nor can a student receive a fellowship from an alternate source and this program for the same position. (This limitation does not preclude a fellow from receiving a living expense stipend or a stipend of scholarship for educational expenses.) Deadline to apply is 5:00 p.m. on Wednesday, April 6.
