Arizona Legislative Legal

Internship Program

Spring Semester

The Arizona Legislative Legal Internship Program provides a unique opportunity to second and third year ASU and UofA law students to learn about state government, current legal issues and the legislative process. The program affords participants intensive research and writing opportunities.

Positions are available in both the Senate and the House of Representatives with the non-partisan Rules Committee legal staff and the Democrat legal staff, and with the Legislative Council, the Legislature’s non-partisan bill drafting and research agency.

The legislative session begins on the second Monday in January. Each legal intern selected receives a spring semester tuition waiver and a $4,200 stipend distributed as bi-weekly paychecks. Students moving from outside Maricopa County who document need will be eligible for up to $500 for approved relocation expenses. The law school awards 6 pass/fail credits for completion of 360 hours of work at the Legislature, at 20 hours each week for 18 weeks. University of Arizona College of Law students may register for classes at Arizona State University College of Law during the spring semester.

Interviews will be held in late October at the Capitol. Interviews are conducted by a panel of legislative attorneys and last approximately 20 minutes. Those selected to participate will be notified within one week of the date of the interviews.
