The Student Fellowship to The University of Texas School of Law’s Nonprofit Organizations Institute was created to encourage participation and engagement in the tax-exempt organizations practice of law by introducing 2nd and 3rd year law students to the practice area, providing opportunities for mentorship, and creating a network of law students interested in pursuing the practice.
A single-year fellowship will be awarded to up to ten recipients that allows for in-person attendance to The University of Texas School of Law’s 41st Annual Nonprofit Organizations Institute on February 7-9, 2024 at the Four Seasons Hotel in Austin, TX. The Institute is a continuing legal and professional education conference that brings together nationally recognized experts from private foundations, public charities, law, finance, and government to discuss the latest tax, legislative and governance issues affecting nonprofit organizations. (For reference, see our PRIOR year’s conference brochure, including full agenda and conference faculty.)
Additionally, the fellowship allows recipients to be matched with a practitioner “mentor” during the 2 1/2 day Institute and provides the opportunity for at least one additional online connection with their mentors and fellowship cohort within the year.
