SABA-DC’S PUBLIC INTEREST FELLOWSHIP


2024 Public Interest Fellowship Application

The Application for SABA-DC's 2024 Public Interest Fellowship Program is NOW AVAILABLE for download here: SABA-DC Public Interest Fellowship Application 2024.docxThe due date for applications is Friday, April 12, 2024.

SABA-DC provides financial assistance in the form of summer fellowships to law students working at public interest organizations in the metropolitan D.C. area. The primary purpose of the fellowship is to help fund a student’s internship with a public interest organization for the benefit of the South Asian community and the metropolitan D.C. area. The number of Fellowships awarded, as well as the amount of each grant, will be determined by the SABA-DC Fellowship Committee and is based on SABA­ DC’s fundraising efforts and the number of quality applicants it receives. SABA-DC has provided grants up to $7,500 per fellow in past years and sponsors several fellows every year. 

We invite any students who will be spending this summer in the Washington, D.C. area to apply! 

If you have any questions, please reach out to our Public Interest Fellowship Committee Co-Chairs, Manasi Raveendran and Sohil Khurana, at sabadcpifellowship@gmail.com.
