WASSERMAN_FUNDED_INTERNSHIP_FALL2014.jpg
Anthropology students! Have an unpaid internship this fall? Wish that unpaid internship could actually pay you? Look no further than the NYU Wasserman Center Internship Grant! The goal of this program is to help support students pursuing non-paying internships within not-for-profit organizations, the arts, education, public service, and within other industries that do not traditionally pay their interns. This $1,000 grant is available to undergraduate and graduate NYU students in degree-granting programs.
This means you can get 1K for running those coffee errands, doing that data entry, or cleaning up after all that finger painting. If this sounds like a dream come true, make sure to get your applications in! Applications are available via NYU CareerNet – Job ID #927342. The application deadline is Tuesday, September 30th at 11:59PM.
