Apply for the Birnbaum Women’s Leadership Network’s (BWLC) Women’s Leadership Fellows Program (WLFP)! The application for the WLFP is now open and will close on Sunday, October 1, at 11:59 p.m. ET. The cohort will be selected on or before Friday, November 3. Due to the three-year nature of the program, the WLFP is only open to 1L JD students at NYU Law.
The Women’s Leadership Fellows Program offers opportunities to build essential leadership skills not otherwise taught in the law school classroom. Fellows collaborate closely as a cohort, and independently, as each participant develops their own individual, authentic leadership style. Students apply and are selected as Fellows early in their 1L year and participate in programming throughout their tenure at NYU Law.
We seek to build a robust inclusive cohort, and we welcome applications from any first-year JD student at NYU Law seeking woman-focused leadership training. Students of all gender identities and expressions (including but not limited to cisgender, transgender, nonbinary, gender non-conforming, and/or genderqueer) are encouraged to apply.
Each Fellow will receive a stipend of $2,500 in their 1L year. The 2024 Sara Moss Women’s Leadership Training is scheduled to take place January 8-12, 2024, before classes resume for the Spring semester.
More information about the WLFP, including a list of FAQ, is available on the BWLC website. If you have any questions, please email us at womensleadership@nyu.edu.
