As you work to land an internship for the summer of 2025, know that there is a new fund that has been created by donors to help support a limited number of students with financial need that are conducting an unpaid, or low-paying internship. The IC Career Center Internship Fund, which can provide qualifying students up to $5,000 to offset costs related to travel, lodging or lack of pay for a summer internship, will be available for students to apply upon returning from winter break.
Even if you don’t have an internship secured, you can submit your application as early as January 21st. More information will be available after winter break, but in the meantime, please check out the website for eligibility criteria. If you have any questions, don’t hesitate to reach out to the Center for Career Exploration & Development at careers@ithaca.edu.
