The summer program is an academic class that offers externship placements with lawyers in the community during the six-week law school summer session (May-June). First- and second-year students interested in a summer externship may earn either 2, 3, or 4 pass/fail credit hours for completing all requirements. Externs attend class via Zoom on Friday mornings during the summer session and work on site Monday-Thursday.

Participation in the Summer Program is via informational meeting in January. Please email Melissa at msaltzma@email.unc.edu for more information about approved summer sites and summer tuition.
