FCC TO EXTEND APPLICATION DEADLINE FOR FALL 2022
HONORS PROGRAM

Applications Must Be Submitted by November 22
WASHINGTON, November 1, 2021 – The Federal Communications Commission announced today that it will extend the deadline for accepting applications from graduating law students and current judicial clerks for its Fall 2022 Attorney Honors Program.  In light of this year’s online application pilot program and to accommodate all qualified candidates directly or indirectly affected by the recent extreme weather and power outages in various parts of the country, the Commission will keep the application window open until 11:59 p.m. EST on November 22, 2021.  This short extension should provide those affected by these unusual weather events additional time to assist their families as needed and then submit their online application materials.
For additional information on the FCC Attorney Honors Program and the application process, please visit the Honors Program webpage at www.fcc.gov/attorneyhonorsprogram.  You may also contact Shannon Hyatt, Office of General Counsel, at honors.program@fcc.gov.
