Anyone knowledgeable willing to provide info on the general credentials needed for a chancery clerkship? Considering applying for a later term but have heard very mixed things about the standard academic credentials of competitive applicants. Some folks have indicated anyone above median from a T14 with a demonstrable interest in corporate work will be competitive, while others have told me it's on par with fed clerkships like EDPA/DNJ/DDE.
above median at t-14 is definitely not competitive. I wouldn't even say above median at YS is competitive. I would put it at non-feeder circuit court level

At HLS - admittedly few data points because not a ton of people clerk chancery, but those that do are predominantly magna

Do you know if they are still making decisions about the 2025-2026 term? (like if we haven't heard back by now, should we assume it's a no?)

To future applicants reading this thread, get to know your school’s corps prof. I would also put it at non-feeder circuit level overall. However, Chancery is not so strict on grades so I would keep that in mind. If you’ve done well on all your corporate law classes but have Bs in con law and crim, I would still label you as a competitive candidate.

I still haven't heard back. I know at this point I'm just waiting for the dong but still, It would be nice to have the rejection letter and be done with it.

Lol I hope you're right and that the anon clerk is a sham (only because I hope 24-25 hiring isn't complete for CM/VCC)
