When do clerkships start?
I was wondering do clerkships start in the summer or do they start in the fall? Also, do you need to pass the bar to do a clerkship?

It depends. Typically, you can expect to start in late August or early September but each chambers is different.friz90 wrote:I was wondering do clerkships start in the summer or do they start in the fall? Also, do you need to pass the bar to do a clerkship?
And no, you do not need to pass the bar to clerk but most judges would prefer you were not studying during the clerkship.

Most do start in August. But a decent handful of chambers start half their clerks in late August and half in early January, to help with the transition.
