Applying for an internship

This program is intended for third-year students with a GPA of 3.0 or better. Students in second year may be considered if there are opportunities for placement.

  • Students submit a targeted cover letter and resume for each position they are interested in and an unofficial transcript (for internal use only).
  • Applications will then be forwarded to the organization.
  • The organizations will interview the student.

Timelines will vary depending on the internal process of the hiring organization. Watch for the first internship postings in early January.

Students who are chosen for an internship must go through training with the Office of Experiential Learning and Career Development.
