Applicants have the ability to change document materials (resume, writing sample, law
school grade sheets, other grade sheets, and cover letters) already attached to an
application that has been created up until the judge review date. Applicants can also modify
their selection of recommenders up until the release of the application. Current students
may change their application materials up until the noon September 6 th release date of ALL
applications. For law school graduates (“Alumni”), judge review is immediate unless the
application is placed in the Hold for Later Submission option; once the applications are
released, they cannot be changed. Note: Prior to changing the application, the user must
upload the revised document or new documents under the My Document section. (See
page 14). Simply revising the version in your uploaded documents files (in My Documents)
will have no effect on the versions you have already attached to submitted applications. If
you want to make changes to applications already submitted, you must go back and
separately attach the revised version to each previously submitted application and click the
Update Application button to make changes. (See instructions below).
1. From the Clerkships List, click on the View button corresponding to the judge
to whom you submitted an application that you would like to modify.
Note: The Clerkships List displays the icon in the Status column once an
application has been submitted.
2. The Clerkship Details tab is displayed. The Application Information is
shown on the right side of the screen. Go to the document field that you
would like to modify and click on the dropdown list to select the document.
Note: For documents already uploaded to the application, OSCAR shows
[leave current] next to the dropdown list. If the user would like to change
that document, click on the pulldown list. If you previously submitted your
applications without attaching any version of a particular document type,
