202 Moore Hall

No registration required.

Come out to an information session to learn about the Honors in Washington and Honors in Savannah internships!

The application for Honors Internships for summer 2025 is now available on the Honors website: https://honors.uga.edu/scholarships/internal-scholarships/honors-internship-program/Current second- and third-year (based on date of enrollment, not credit hours) Honors students in good standing are eligible to apply. The application deadline is Wednesday, October 15, 2025 at 12:00pm.For Washington D.C., known as Honors in Washington, sixteen students will be selected. Students from all majors who have a compelling reason to intern in Washington are welcome. Because the program is interested in having some portion of the cohort work in Congress, applicants interested in Congressional placements may have some advantage. However, the program encourages participants to apply to any internship that suits their interests, and indeed many each summer work “off the Hill.” While students are responsible for securing an internship, the program will assist them in their search. All Honors in Washington interns live in the UGA facility in the Capitol Hill neighborhood, Delta Hall; housing is covered and interns will receive an additional stipend for living expenses.Honors in Savannah places one student in the U.S. Attorney’s Office for the Southern District of Georgia. This internship best suits pre-law students considering careers in public interest law. Past interns have worked on all phases of criminal and civil cases, as well as Department of Justice initiatives. The Savannah intern receives a substantial stipend and makes their own housing arrangements.

Start and end dates will vary by internship, but participants are generally expected to work full-time for at least nine weeks.NOTE: Students interested in Washington, D.C. should start researching possible internship placements sooner than later, as some will have very early deadlines. Federal agencies (State Department, FBI, etc) are among those with fall deadlines for the following summer. Don’t wait to find out whether you made it into “Honors in Washington” to apply for internships.
