Benefit-Eligible Internships
Individuals who are eligible for intern benefits must work a minimum of 20 hours per week and expect to complete a 24-week internship. Those who do not meet this criteria do not receive intern benefits. Occasionally, some departments substitute a paid salary with college credit. For-credit interns are not eligible for benefits.
