Below are links to three successful Equal Justice Works Fellowships proposals submitted in past competitions. These proposals exemplify the clarity, comprehensiveness and dedication that typify a successful application. They are intended to offer guidance to prospective candidates and are in no way fully representative of the wide scope of applications that Equal Justice Works approves every year.

Note: A complete application package contains a proposal, a completed Certification Form and up to two letters of recommendation, all submitted electronically via the online application system. If you are a career counselor advising students, please be sure to include all three components in a sample packet.
