Internship Stipend Application

Provides financial assistance to Queens College undergraduate or graduate students who are participating in unpaid internships in the arts, education, public service, non-profit agencies, and other industries that do not traditionally pay their interns.

This stipend is a one-time $2,550 financial award that will support current undergraduate and graduate students engaged in unpaid internships/research hosted by organizations. Students can choose spring, summer or fall and, in agreement with the employer, participate in an internship for 150 hours total ranging from 5 to 10 weeks.
​The internship stipend fund is made possible by generous alumni donors and the Queens College Foundation. It is stewarded by the Center for Career Engagement and Internships.

Students can ask a Queens College faculty or staff to be listed as a recommender/nominator and then complete the application form.
