Selection Process

The selection process moves very quickly, so only apply to judges with whom you would accept an offer.

Online System for Clerkship
Application & Review

This summer and fall, almost 500 federal judges are accepting clerkship applications for the 2009 term exclusively through OSCAR, an internet-based application system. Click the links below for more information.

Application Process: Application Timing

Many judges or courts list date ranges for accepting applications (i.e., September 7, 2008 until October 31, 2008). Apply as early in the date range as possible because some judges stop accepting applications if they find numerous qualified candidates.
