Student Legal Services
The Student Legal Services Externship enables you to earn academic credit for one semester of work at Student Legal Services (SLS), a nonprofit law office that provides legal services to Indiana University students and student groups. You'll typically earn credit during your first semester of work at SLS; after that, if you choose to continue working there, you'll be paid hourly. The course is open to second- and third-year students.
As an SLS extern, you'll develop fundamental skills in:
- Client interviewing
- Counseling
- Problem solving
- Negotiating
