Levy Internship Fund
The Levy Internship Fund provides eligible students with $6000 for un(der) paid summer internships. Undergraduate first-year through junior students who receive or who are eligible to receive need-based financial aid are eligible to receive the Levy Internship Fund. Qualifying internships include a minimum of 8-week summer unpaid or underpaid internship experiences. Students do not have to have their summer internship 100% secured when applying. Students will be required to demonstrate a secured internship before receiving funds for the summer. Failure to demonstrate a secured internship will revoke access to internship funding.
Funding awards can be used for housing costs, meals, transportation costs (to/from internship, commuter travel, etc.), and professional attire.
Students receiving a Levy Internship Fund award will be required to participate in a pre/post workshop session to maximize their internship experience.
