Rolling Deadlines: At the top of each “Applications by Deadline” Table (one for 1Ls, 2Ls, 3Ls & LLMs, JLCs, Recent Grads) is a list of
programs that hire on a “Rolling Basis.” This means the employer accepts and reviews applications as received, and may make hiring
decisions on this timeframe. If you have an interest in such a program (and would seriously consider an offer, if extended), review the
“Rolling Deadlines” list on a regular basis.
