About:
Since 1953, the Attorney General’s Honors Program has been recognized as the nation’s premier entry-level federal attorney recruitment program. The Honors Program attracts candidates from hundreds of law schools across the country representing a broad cross-section of experiences and interests. Selections are made based on many elements of a candidate’s background, including a demonstrated commitment to government service, academic achievement, leadership, journal, moot court and mock trial experience, clinical experience, past employment, and extracurricular activities that relate to the work of Justice and the relevant component. The Department of Justice seeks high caliber attorneys to advance its mission and welcomes applications from candidates whose backgrounds reflect the Nation’s rich diversity.
Qualification:
- Eligibility is limited to graduating law students and recent law school graduates who entered judicial clerkships, graduate law programs, or qualifying legal fellowships within 9 months of law school graduation.

- All academic requirements for both degrees must be completed and degrees conferred by September 30, 2025
- When the degrees are not conferred at the same time, there cannot be a significant break in time between completion of one degree and the continuation of the second degree program (e.g., no more than a normal interim between semesters/quarters or a regular summer break)

- Participation in the eligibility preserving activity must be active through at least December 1 of the application year (may run later)
- Applicants must continuously remain eligible throughout the hiring cycle: a change in circumstances (e.g., curtailing a clerkship, fellowship, or graduate law program) may impact eligibility
