RealArts@Penn Internship Prize
Apply for a RealArts@Penn Internship Prize
For the 4th year in a row, RealArts@Penn is offering an internship prize specifically designed to help with costs associated with unpaid & underpaid internships. This prize is intended specifically for students who have been offered an internship in a creative or arts related field. Undergraduates from any school and grade level are eligible for the RealArts@PENN prize. One of these prizes is reserved specifically for a rising sophomore. To receive prize money, students must have already been offered a creative/arts related internship. Awards will be based on need and can range from $250 to $4000.
To Apply
In one pdf document, students should submit a resume, details of their unpaid internship, (i.e. The Company or Organization, internship description, start and end dates and number of hours worked per week), and an estimate of expected internship related expenses.
If you have any questions, please contact R.J. Bernocco at bernocco@writing.upenn.edu or Stephanie Garcia at stgarcia@ica.upenn.edu.
Applications will be accepted until midnight on April 30th, 2019 and prizes will be awarded on a rolling basis, so apply as soon as possible.
