Emily Wu is a dual JD/MSCJS candidate at Suffolk University Law School. She graduated from Boston University with a B.A. in Psychology and Political Science, with a minor in Deaf Studies. While at Boston University, she was the only Massachusetts student selected for the Administrative Office of the U.S. Courts’ Model Intern Diversity Pilot Program, through which she interned for the United States District Court for the District of Massachusetts and had the opportunity to rotate through seven different units of the federal judicial system. She later interned for the Massachusetts Department of Corrections, focusing on re-entry and medical parole, and the Massachusetts Parole Board, where she had the opportunity to draft memorandums pertaining to Executive Clemency and parole hearings. Wu’s passions lie within criminal law, criminal justice reform, and equal access to justice, with the main goal being to serve and aid marginalized communities. As a 2025 Rappaport Fellow, Wu will intern at the City of Boston’s Law Department.
