Each year, Columbia students receive postgraduate fellowships such as Skadden, Equal Justice Works, and Immigrant Justice Corps. They are also among the few who are selected for positions in the Department of Justice Honors Program and other highly competitive government fellowship programs. Social Justice Initiatives assists students and graduates interested in these opportunities.
In addition, generous donors, many of whom are alumni, have demonstrated that public interest law is at the core of the Law School’s values by creating fellowships that allow our graduates to pursue public interest careers in many sectors, in the U.S. and abroad.
