Postgraduate Fellowships

Postgraduate fellowships are full-time, time-limited positions that are generally awarded at or near the beginning of your legal career. They provide unique opportunities for new lawyers to start and expand their legal careers.

At PILC, we work closely with NYU Law students and alumni to identify and apply to a wide variety of post-graduate fellowships

Project Fellowships

Project fellowships are unique in that the applicant, in partnership with a host organization, develops a one to two-year legal project, and applies externally for funding.

Internally Funded Fellowships

Internally-funded fellowships (sometimes referred to as organizational fellowships) are more akin to time-limited staff attorney positions.

NYU-Dedicated Fellowships

NYU Law offers a number of post-graduate project and organizational fellowships exclusively for its graduating NYU Law students and alumni
