I loved the community that was formed of all the interns- it was clear that their internship program was well established and aimed to provide us with a bounty of resources and time to ramp up.
What I wish was different
I wish it were longer than 12 weeks. I wish UVA offered co-op programs.
Advice
Say yes to everything. Learn something, and try new things. Don't be afraid to ask questions.

What I liked
pod structure (worked with 2 other interns), exposure to diverse roles/fields within the company
What I wish was different
the actual work had a steep learning curve, and it took me a long time to feel comfortable in the codebase (I was on the .NET team)- this varies a LOT team to team though!
Advice
the explore internship is great for exploring the PM and software roles and to spend time learning more about the industry in general!
