As part of our ongoing commitment to diversity, we are proud to sponsor the Kirkland & Ellis 2L Diversity Fellowship Program. Since 2004, Kirkland has sponsored 340 Fellows with grants totaling over $7 million. In addition to a $50,000* scholarship, our 2L Diversity Fellowship provides a unique opportunity for students to work alongside some of the top lawyers in the world, gain hands-on experience and mentoring, develop leadership skills, interact with Firm clients and make enduring connections with peers.
Fellowship applicants should submit a personal statement explaining the individual’s interests and goals in joining Kirkland. Applicants must also apply to and receive an offer to join the summer program at one of the Firm's offices. Please reach out to Jason Triplett with any questions.
Applications will open in Spring 2023.
*$50,000 less all required income and payroll taxes.
