The High School Division of the Sonia & Celina Sotomayor Judicial Internship Program (The Sotomayor Program) encourages diverse and underrepresented high school students from communities among the five New York City boroughs to pursue careers in the law.


Students will intern with a state or federal judge located in one of the five New York City boroughs. Internship hours will likely be from 9:00 A.M. to 4:00 P.M., subject to the assigned judge’s discretion, from Monday through Thursday for four weeks. Students will also attend educational and professional development workshops on Fridays, likely from 10:00 A.M. to 2:00 P.M. Students must honor the above time commitments, whether in-person or virtual, to participate in and successfully complete the program.
