Events and Opportunities
The Summer Internship Funding Application is open for 2023. All applications must be submitted through Summit (under the Office of the Dean of the College).
Funding is intended to increase the ability of CC students to participate in internships that are unpaid or underpaid. Each Colorado College student is eligible to receive one award during their four undergraduate years. All internships must be away from the CC campus, and all travel for internships outside of the U.S. must be approved. Third-party programs are not eligible for funding.
The first deadline for consideration is March 24, 2023. The sooner you start your search, the more proactive you can be for this application. It is unlikely all funds will be distributed at this deadline. Applications will continue to be accepted until funds run out or May 19, whichever comes first.
Watch the Career Center Funding Website for full details and updates.
