The application will ask for

A committee of staff and faculty members will make the final decision on the dollar amount and recipient(s) for each award. 

If you are awarded funding and decide to intern at an organization different from what you detailed in your application, you will be asked to submit an updated scholarship application. The committee will review your updated application and decide if: 1) your internship is still fundable at the original level; or 2) your award needs to be adjusted or withdrawn.

• Upon completion, awardees will be asked to submit a video or written reflection addressing how the internship helped them grow and think about their career options. These reflections help fellow students see the value of interning & help donors see the value of supporting intern scholarships.
