发帖数: 50 | 1 我是半路出家的JD,OPT以前毕业时已经用了现在只有CPT.但是系里很变态的规定拿学分
实习就不可以拿钱。目前为止我知道的除了public interest以外的实习都是要发工资
的,想做义工都不行。这样子我就只能做public service/clerk了，不用说进law firm
，就是给教授做RA都不可以。郁闷～，这样的话读这个jd还有什么意思？大家有出出主
意我有什么办法可以搞到实习？有人听说过不给实习生发工资的law firm吗？ |

please!!! that's called externship, not intern. also in some states, you can
get paid when you are doing externship, as long as the wage does not exceed
certain amount (which is very low actually). |

Is this true? Better get to the bottom of it. I am in the same situation
though I am not in Law school yet.
Please don't let this be true.
What ABA regulation covers CPT? Where to look? |

Curricular Practical Training (CPT)
Work experience is an important part of a law school program and may be
considered Curricular Practical Training (CPT). Work experience includes
alternate work-study programs, internships,cooperative education programs,
and practicum experiences. The practical training must be required for the
student’s program, or the student must be enrolled in an official practicum
course where the student will receive ac |

发帖数: 50 | 8 Thanks. It looks like that the "credit or salary, not both" rule is not from
ABA then (I seriously hope so), since Cooley does offer CPT. Unless it has restrictions that are not pasted below.
Wish I had checked CPT policy with law schools before making the decision which one to attend. I simply took it for granted. 55

发帖数: 461 | 9 some schools may give another year of OPT even though you used it before on
your ph.d. or m.s. the immigration rule isn't crystal clear on this issue,
and the schools have different interpretations. If the law school thinks it'
s OK and then makes the recommendation to INS about the OPT, INS won't
really second-check it. |

发帖数: 50 | 10 Checked. Law school says it depends on International Office,and IO says
absolutely no OPT for me.!_! They said PhD is the highest degree already;
plus there're LLM and SJD, so there's no way that JD is higher than PhD.
I also know ppl get OPT for JD after using the one for PhD. It all depends
on the school, and I happen to choose the wrong one. //sigh
If I can only do public service during 1L and 2L summers, is there still any
chance that I can get into firm after graduation??

发帖数: 461 | 11 after first year most people don't find paid internship anyway. second year
summer working for for public interest/clerkship isn't uncommon. although
you might be disadvantaged somehow, just try to get the best position you
can get, and I think you should be fine. |
