Impact Internship Grant Application | Summer 2025
Applications for the Impact Internship Grant are now open!
The Center for Career Development & Academic Exploration is pleased to offer competitive grants for students completing unpaid or very low stipend internships in an impact area (non-profit, social service, educational institution, or environmental organization just to name a few).
If you have secured an internship for the Summer of 2025 with an organization that has a positive social or environmental impact, then please consider applying for the Impact Internship Grant. This grant is designed to help alleviate some of the financial strains that can come along with completing an unpaid internship.
For more information about the grant, please visit http://bit.ly/UTImpactIntern. Just as a disclaimer, if you are completing an internship, practicum, or placement as part of your academic program or major, those experiences are not typically eligible for the grant. However, if you are completing an internship outside of or in addition to your major requirements, you would be eligible to receive funding.
Completed Applications MUST include the following:
- Resume
- Budget Form (attached to application)
- Employer Verification (attached to application)
- Short Answers (attached to application)
Please add Employer Verification and Short Answer forms under "Cover Letter & Transcript" when applying to ensure all required documents are attached.
