The Washington Center has built relationships with institutions or government agencies in many countries. These relationships create a smooth pathway to interning in the U.S. Students from these countries are encouraged to speak with their school representatives about coming to Washington, D.C., and interning through TWC.

Students from non-affiliated universities may also apply.

Canada

Since 1996, over 400 students from post-secondary institutions across Canada have participated in our program, and TWC has established affiliations with more than 30 colleges and universities from Alberta, New Brunswick, Quebec, Ontario and Saskatchewan. Canadian students may be eligible for a number of provincial scholarships to participate in The Washington Center’s programs.

Mexico

TWC has strong relationships with the most prestigious private and public universities in Mexico. More than 1,000 young professionals that have come to our programs have found exceptional jobs after they returned to Mexico in both the public and the private sectors. TWC has affiliations with several universities and has created the Governor’s Internship Program specifically for Mexican young professionals.

Singapore

The Washington Center has signed an affiliation agreement with the National University of Singapore. NUS students are therefore eligible to be considered for TWC’s Civic Engagement Award which is a US $1,000 housing scholarship. Recipients are chosen competitively on the basis of their academic performance and record of involvement and leadership in relevant settings (college or university, community, etc.) as reflected in their application, including their resume and transcript.

Students from other universities are also welcome to participate in TWC’s programs.
