Application submission for Spring 2025 begins November 8, 2024 with the deadline of November 22, 2024.
Radford University is excited to launch the Highlander Works Internship Grant program to support students participating in internships. The program will be administered through the Center for Career and Talent Development Office. Grant funds will go directly toward removing financial barriers to student participation. Requests can be funded in part or in full up to $5,000 per student.
Degree-seeking students currently enrolled full-time at Radford University with at least a 2.0 GPA are eligible to apply with priority given to undergraduate students and students pursuing their first internship at the college level. To apply for funding, students are required to receive academic credit from an internship course that is officially listed by an academic department. While students do not need to have their internship confirmed at the time of application, confirmation is required prior to fund disbursement via an employer verification form. Internships can be domestic or international. Funding cannot be used toward tuition and fees.
Note that programs requiring a fee to obtain an internship, training, etc. are not eligible, including service vacations.
Note that we will prioritize internships proper and consider other allied terms to the degree they meet our definition of internship and that funds are available.
Students will be required to complete:
