It's that time of year again! The OSCAR Program Office will soon perform its annual system archiving to prepare for law clerk hiring in 2019. This is done once a year to make room for new applicants, positions, and applications--and to help the site run faster.

What Do You Need to Do?

The applicable schedule and tasks for judges and chambers staff only are as follows.

Monday, November 26, 2018

  • Task: All currently archived applicant accounts (including applications and all applicant-related materials) are deleted from the system.
  • Suggested Action: To retain your records, download archived applications and applicant information from your Applicants > Archives tab prior to November 26.

Monday, December 10, 2018

  • Task: Clerkship positions filled or expired as of June 30, 2018 are archived. Applications associated with positions filled or expired as of June 30, 2018 are archived. 
  • Suggested Action: To retain your records, download filled/expired positions and applications submitted to those positions prior to December 10.

Please Note: The OSCAR system will be fully functional during each of these maintenance sessions. There will be no downtime for users.
