This scholarship is designed to broaden the voices and experiences of female staff on Capitol Hill. It strives to ensure more women from diverse backgrounds are able to bring their experience and knowledge to the legislative process. Because interning is so often a prerequisite to a full-time job, having women enter the pipeline at the very beginning is key to their continued success.
These fellowships are designed to train potential leaders in public policy formation to examine issues from the perspective, experiences, and needs of women.

This is a five-week pre-law program that takes place at either Harvard or New York University (they switch off years) to support underrepresented populations in their pursuit of law school and the passing of the LSATs. Throughout these weeks, the students in the program will be able to create custom study plans that allow them to effectively pass the practice LSAT exams that they sit through through their time in the program. In addition, students have the chance to attend lectures and lunches given by professionals in the field that each feature time for specific questions from students. Students are also given opportunities to see law in practice in either New York City or in Boston, depending on the location of the program that year.
This is just one of the many programs for internships that the U.S. government offers through their platform, USA Jobs. In order to know more of the opportunities, students should sign up for emails from the platform and will be notified when positions are posted. There are many options that come out throughout the year and students can apply to them for fall, spring, and summer semesters. The positions, location, and responsibilities can vary with each position, but each can provide students with extensive experience in the field and resume building options.
This is an opportunity to submit your resume into a bank for federal job openings for a span of three months. This will make a resume available to employers who are looking for candidates to fill federal employment positions. If an employer searches for a skill that can be found in your resume, they will be able to see yours without you having to submit your own personal application. This bank is a new way of making yourself known to the federal workforce.
This is a full-time paid fellowship over the course of seven weeks in the summer based in ten major cities around the United States. Fellows have their time divided into two partnerships: one with an elected official and another with a community organization that is committed to social justice and making a lasting impact on the area they are serving. Alongside the elected official, fellows will be able to work on a critical policy project through research, drafting proposals, and engaging in the work that they are proposing. During their partnership with a community organization, the fellow will be volunteering and learning more about the area that they are serving. While all of this work is taking place, the fellowship program will be providing networking opportunities, leadership and career coaching, and more in order to expand each fellow’s experience with the program.
Students enrolled in a variety of educational levels, from high school to graduate school, are eligible to apply. Summer Interns will receive varied assignments designed to provide on-the-job training and experience in activities conducted by various FAS program areas
