Get Paid to Intern in the U.S. or Abroad - New Fall 2022 Paid Student Internship Program

Always wanted to intern with us but never thought you could afford to? Now you can!  

We are pleased to announce a new paid student internship program beginning with the Fall 2022 internship season. The program is intended to expand opportunities for students of all backgrounds in post-secondary degree programs to gain experience and insight into the variety of careers available in U.S. foreign policy programs and administration of the U.S. Department of State and its diplomatic missions worldwide.

By providing paid internships, we seek to remove barriers for students who may not have the financial means to support themselves during an unpaid, volunteer internship.

We are currently accepting applications through April 12, 2022, or until 1,000 applications are received. Up to 200 student applicants will be chosen for the Fall 2022 internship season.

Please make sure to stay connected to us since our intent is to make all internships paid in 2023.
