The Legal Education Opportunity Program (NY LEO), sponsored by the New York State Judicial Institute with the support of Assemblywoman Latoya Joyner, runs a summer program for recent graduates entering law school in the Fall of 2017.
DEADLINE: April 7, 2017.
NY LEO is an intensive, on-site, six-week law school preparation program housed at the New York State Judicial Institute that runs from June 4 through July 14, 2017. The program provides a solid foundation for excellence in law school and is designed to support the success of prospective law students who are members of groups underrepresented in the legal profession through course work, mentoring, and substantive engagement with lawyers and judges.
To be eligible for NY LEO, applicants must be New York State residents who are (1) minority, economically disadvantaged, or educationally disadvantaged; (2) college graduates by June 2017; and (3) accepted to or on the wait list at a law school in New York State for Fall 2017 enrollment.

Please share this wonderful opportunity with students admitted and wait-listed at your law school and let me know if you have any questions about the program.
