The Fall 2027 SLPS Application will open in the Fall Semester.
The Fall 2027 SLPS Application will be available early in the Fall Semester and due on Monday, September 7th, 2026 before midnight.
Students can begin working on this application as soon as it is live. It is recommended, however, that students review the SLPS Roadmap and project descriptions before submitting their application. If a student has never participated in a SLPS project before, they might also book a meeting with the Executive Director of the Pro Bono Program or attend an office hour the first week of Spring Semester to understand more about the Pro Bono Program. There is no advantage to submitting the application early. All applications will be reviewed after the deadline.
Please complete only ONE application.
Other Important Information:
Mandatory Legal Ethics Training
There will be a mandatory Pro Bono Legal Ethics Training for all new SLPS participants on Wednesday, September 23rd, 2026 from 12:50 P.M. to 2:00 P.M.*
