Florida State University (FSU) College of Law's 2024 Donald J. Weidner Summer for Undergraduates Program

FSU is currently accepting applications for next summer's residential program that will provide students with an inside look at law school and the legal profession.

The program will be hosted in-person on the FSU campus from May 21-June 14, 2024. FSU will provide room, board, books, and other program materials, as well as a $500 stipend to participants.

Sixty outstanding undergraduate students will be selected to participate in the 2024 program. They will join a network of more than 1,700 alumni, many of whom are practicing law in firms, agencies, organizations, and corporations across the country.

The application deadline is March 29, 2024, however, FSU encourages students to apply early as they will begin reviewing applications next month.

Eligibility

College students enrolled at two-and four-year institutions, in all majors and from all backgrounds, are invited to apply following their freshman year. FSU particularly welcomes students from groups historically underrepresented in the legal profession. Because one purpose of the program is to help students direct their remaining time in college to best prepare for law school, only rising sophomores, juniors, and seniors are eligible to participate. Students who will have earned their bachelor's degree prior to the start of the program will not be eligible for admission.
