The Summer Internship Funding Awards Program is designed with the intention to increase the ability of Colorado College students to participate in internship opportunities, many of which remain unpaid or underpaid. Each Colorado College student is eligible to receive one award during their four undergraduate years.
All fully enrolled Colorado College students who will remain fully enrolled in courses for at least one semester beyond their internship, are eligible to apply for summer internship funding. If you are a junior, or first semester senior, who does not meet these eligibility requirements, we are happy to discuss extenuating circumstances and assess applications with some special considerations. Please reach out to the Career Center with questions, or complete an application with very clear information so your situation can be assessed.
