The Office of Career Services encourages students to consider
positions in the government and public interest arenas. The
Office’s in-house and on-line resource library contains a wealth of
material on government honors programs and internships, public
interest employment opportunities, fellowships, funding sources and
applicable deadlines. The Office also participates in a
number of job fairs geared at educating students about public
service opportunities.
St. John’s University School of Law has developed several
programs to encourage and assist students and graduates who want to
pursue a career in public interest. These programs include
the Public
Interest Fellowship Program, the Pro Bono Service
Project , and the Loan Repayment
Assistance Program.
