2L Diversity?

Post by Anonymous User » Thu Feb 11, 2021 9:07 pm

Anyone know how long it takes to hear back from a firm's 2L diversity program? What if you already have an offer--does that disqualify you from diversity offers from the same firm?

I am sure the timeline varies by firm. I sent my diversity application in pre-OCI but the firm was still accepting them during OCI. I found out I was selected for a scholarship a few days after I got my offer. I assume that if a firm is still accepting diversity applications while making offers, you might still be selected for a scholarship even after receiving an offer. Rather than disqualifying you, I think an offer is generally a pre- or co-requisite for getting a scholarship.

Think this is going to vary wildly by firm. I know one firm had already given out all of their scholarships pretty early in the OCI process. Agree with above poster that an offer is usually a pre- or co-requisite. If you already have an offer, it doesn't hurt to just ask the firm about it.

Getting an offer def doesn't disqualify you from it. I got a Weil offer and 2-3 weeks later got the diversity fellowship. Also got a GDC offer and a diversity fellowship a week later.
