These internships provide scholarships for accepted students to cover their Washington Center Program and Housing Fees, as well as an additional living stipend. Undergraduate students of all majors are eligible, as long as their GPA is 3.5 or above.

Come join us for a 15 week-long intensive internship and academic program in Florence, Kentucky!

Accepted students will also be provided with a stipend.

How to Apply:
Students should fill out an online application at http://secure.twc.edu. Students create a login name and password. They should select “Internship” in the drop down menu. They should then select Option 2, “Government Scholarship Programs”. Students are asked to select our Department of Commerce Application, as we are currently in the process of updating our other application materials. There is no application fee for our Government Scholarship Programs. If students are prompted to provide payment information, they have selected the wrong internship application and should go back to select “Government Scholarship Programs”.
