Applications
are accepted on a rolling basis but we recommend applying
as early as possible as there are a limited number
of spots for each program. It is never too early to
secure an internship, and once you have been accepted
and commit to experiencing Washington D.C. you gain
access to our extensive internship database! Also,
some internships require considerable lead time for
security screening and processing.
