The program is committed to ensuring equity, access, and excellence in legal education both in California and nationally.

Additional consideration is also given to applicants who have overcome economic and/or educational hardships and challenges, or come from, or have demonstrated leadership experience in, economically or educationally underserved communities.

By providing advice, activities, and mentorship to the Law Fellows, the Program prepares Fellows to successfully enter, and succeed in top law programs and, eventually, legal careers. In addition, Saturday Academies afford Law Fellows access to a variety of events, programs and services, including: • Professional-Level Instruction by Law School Faculty • Personalized Juris Doctorate (Law School) Action Plan • Mentoring by Current UCLA Law Students • Admissions, Financial Aid and Public Interest Law Workshops • Legal Research Training by Law Library Staff • UCLA Extension LSAT Instruction • Full Scholarships for LSAT Preparation Course • Presentations by Practicing Attorneys and Leaders in the Law Community • Follow-Up Activities and Counseling until Law School Matriculation If you are not able to access the attachment, please provide us with your mailing address or fax number and we will send you a paper copy.

SEO- Sponsors for Educational Opportunity
Description: Interested on working on Wall Street? Want to live in New York for the entire summer? Would you like to receive $1000 a week? Please read below: OPENING DOORS TO SUCCESS Sponsors for Educational Opportunity is the nation’s premiere summer internship program for talented students of color leading to full-time job offers. Since its inception, SEO’s Career Program has placed over 4,000 Black, Hispanic/Latino, Asian, and Native American students in internships that lead to opportunities in exciting and rewarding careers in the most competitive industries worldwide. Our program is featured in Princeton Review’s 109 Best Internships in America, and is a gateway to the most coveted and highest paying careers. More than 80% of SEO interns receive job offers from partner firms after their internships. SEO grooms its interns to excel in the workplace and become leaders in their communities who will give back and forge a path to success for the next generation. As a direct result of the Career Program and the high performance of its interns, SEO has significantly increased the number of people of color employed on Wall Street and by major corporations nationwide. WHAT SEO INTERNS RECEIVE SEO interns receive a comprehensive internship experience that goes far beyond simply placing students at companies for the summer. Interns gain exposure to CEOs and top executives of partner firms through the SEO Summer Seminar Series. We offer intensive training before and during the internship. Each intern is supported by an extensive mentoring program, and is welcomed into a powerful alumni network comprised of over 4,500 alumni in 43 states and 30 countries. Combined, these resources put our interns on the fastest track to some of the most financially rewarding career opportunities in the world. SEO Career Program interns have been turning their summer experiences into successful careers for 26 years. HOW WE STARTED SEO was founded in 1963 during the height of the modern Civil Rights Movement as a mentoring and college prep program for underprivileged high school students in New York City. The organization was based upon the conviction that all students can succeed when given access to opportunities. As more and more of SEO’s students went on to college, SEO recognized that there was a need to advocate for increased opportunities for minorities in the corporate workforce. In 1980, the SEO Career Program was established to help high achieving students of color (Black, Hispanic/Latino, Asian, and Native American) reach their career goals by providing internships in some of our nation’s most challenging fields. Starting with Wall Street, the SEO Career Program began with 11 students placed at four investment banking firms. The Career Program now partners with more than 40 firms, offering over 350 career-blazing summer internships in eight areas. There will be several info sessions this fall semester. Please stay posted!
