Division of Religious Immigration Services
FALL INTERNSHIP OPPORTUNITIES
Legal internships are available in CLINIC’s national office in Washington, DC
in the Division of Religious Immigration Services (DRIS) – the only division
within CLINIC that regularly provides direct client representation. DRIS
represents Catholic dioceses and religious orders bringing foreign-born
priests, sisters, seminarians and lay persons into the U.S. to work for the
Catholic Church.
We accept 2-3 interns each semester. Under the supervision of the
division’s seven staff attorneys, interns’ case work will include:
- applications for nonimmigrant visas at U.S. consulates abroad;
- applications for change of status or extension of status in the U.S.;
- requirements for special immigrant religious workers;
- applications for legal permanent residence;
- case management and client contact;
- legal research opportunities.
Students from the following schools have participated in the DRIS Internship
program:
- · Catholic University of America – Columbus School of Law
- · Georgetown University Law School;
- · George Mason University School of Law;
- · Howard University School of Law
- · Duquesne University School of Law
- · Southern New England School of Law;
- · The University of Mississippi; and
- · The University of North Carolina – Chapel Hill.
