Ford Fellowship Questions Forum

[americanman]

Thinking about applying for this Ford Fellowship program. Does anyone have any information on it? I know its prestigious but I am trying to find more information and really can't. Is it split 1ls and 2ls or is it mostly 2Ls?

Hopefully theres a former Ford fellow on here who can give more insight.
Thanks in advance.

This one? http://www.law.harvard.edu/current/care ... ships.html

It's only Harvard, Yale, Stanford, and NYU, and the deadline for summer 2014 has passed.

I am at NYU and a 1L, and the deadline for 1Ls is the end of November.

But yes that one.

Ah ok, I totally forgot that 1Ls had a later deadline. Sorry if I made you panic for a second! The link above shows the 1L / 2L split for HLS -- maybe NYU publishes their list too. It might be a little different since each school selects their own fellows, so one school might give a higher priority to 2Ls than another.

Good luck!
