How do we request BYU interns?
Brigham Young University requests that all organizations accepting its students as interns sign a Master Internship Agreement. The agreement includes a $1,000,000 commercial liability insurance policy provided by BYU at no cost to the internship provider. Modified versions of the agreement are available for federal agencies and congressional offices. For information about these versions please write to scott.dunaway@byu.edu.
The Washington Seminar office maintains a secure database of Washington, D.C. area internships that BYU students consult in deciding where they would like to apply for an internship. If you would like your internship included in our database, please complete the online form.
