[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Too late to apply. I received a couple of application email last week, but our university/institution has deadline way ahead and I can’t do anything now. I think Blair counselor should have told the juniors about the timeline as she is extremely experienced.[/quote]

Unless it has changed, Juniors take a whole second semester class relating to research and prep for the summer internship.  It is unlikely a student is just hearing about the process now.   My child had an internship at NIST and I think the application process started early in the year.  As stated above, the program has a relationship with UMD so kids will eventually be connected with a professor if they are not able to find something themselves.[/quote]

Applications mostly started in early this year, but interviewing, sending out offer and onboarding all take time depending on how efficient the HR works, usually a couple of months. I usually have a couple of students contact me in late fall so when I create an opening, I already have someone in mind and budgeting a new position (costing $$) wouldn't happen magically. Internship with UMD could have pay or no-pay. With JHU and some other universities, they got paid, so everything involves money needs a well-ahead-of-time budgeting at mentor side. [/quote]
