Financial Support

Students receive academic credit from their home institutions for a semester or summer spent interning through The Washington Center. Students pay a program fee to participate as well as a housing fee if they choose to stay in TWC-provided apartments. Some internship sites provide a small stipend to their interns for expenses; others may provide scholarship support to assist in tuition or housing costs. Financial support or payment is not required to hire TWC’s interns.

How Financial Aid Works

Mentor Resources

The Washington Center highly values its relationship with internship supervisors and mentors. Its goal is to continue investing in and developing these relationships for the mutual benefit of students, the internship sites and the organization. Available resources include an Internship Site Handbook, New Supervisor Orientation, the Internship Sites Newsletter and a staff readily available to assist as needed.

Getting Started

Hosting an intern is a prime way to make a difference in the lives and education of the next generation. You can set the stage for this well-rounded learning experience any time of year; TWC’s programs run for 15 weeks in the Fall and Spring, and 10 weeks in the Summer.
