Opportunities

The ASPIRE high school internship application for summer 2024 is open! As a reminder, this is the ONLY application period for the 2024 calendar year. There will not be an academic year application.
 
ASPIRE is JHU APL’s unpaid, learning-based internship that provides high school juniors and seniors with the opportunity to explore careers in science, technology, engineering, and mathematics. During the intensive summer session, ASPIRE interns are paired with APL staff mentors to complete projects, solve problems, and learn and apply crucial technical and interpersonal skills in a hands-on, professional environment. Summer students who wish to continue their internships into the academic year may do so with mentor agreement and/or self-matching with a new mentor.
 
We’ve had some fun changes to ASPIRE this year and are pleased to offer:

• An in-person or virtual experience

• A streamlined application (no more resumes!)

• A start date of 6/25 or 6/26 with a full-day of orientation activities 6/27

• A gallery of projects from last summer

• An updated sample application

 
We are holding one virtual community info session on January 10th from 5pm-6pm. This session will be recorded and the recording will be distributed to this mailing list. Please join us for an overview of the program, tips on standing out, and an interactive Q&A. Please feel free to forward this invite to anyone who you feel may be interested in attending!
 
To learn more about this exciting, free opportunity, as well as our full eligibility requirements, please visit our website. Email any additional questions to Jessica Goodard at ASPIRE@jhuapl.edu.

Attn JUNIOR level students interested in the healthcare field:
Juniors (rising seniors) who intend to register for internship periods in the 2024-2025 school year.  The closing date is firmly March 29th but the application is open for Holy Cross Hospital Internship!
 
Instructions for students:
Thank you for your interest in the Holy Cross Health internship! Here are a few important things to know before applying:

• Please be aware that the Holy Cross Health policy is that interns must be at least 16 years of age to intern (so 16 by September 15, 2024). 

• Medical requirements (no exemptions) include Flu, MMR, Varicella, and TB testing.

• Proof of COVID vaccination (if you got it or a statement saying you didn’t get it).

• There is a significant onboarding process with paperwork and parent involvement.

• Complete ALL sections of the application.  Failure to not complete sections may result in Volunteer Services not considering your application.

• We must have a valid NON-SCHOOL email address. Please put an email address that YOU check regularly on your application.  After the applications close, you will receive important instructions on next steps (information session, group interviews, etc.).

• You must follow the instructions to be considered for an internship.  Following instructions in the hospital saves lives!

• Timeline:

• This internship application was sent to all internship coordinators and clinical instructors at MCPS on the same day, so everyone has a fair chance to apply.

• This application is not posted online because I only want it available to the students who contact you and register for 1-3 period(s) of internship. Please don’t’ share with friends outside the internship program.

• The application will close on March 29th at 3:30pm so that I can begin group information sessions with students in early April. 

• Group interviews will be held in April. 

• I hope to have all decisions made about acceptances by May 1st.

Please come see Ms. Letourneau if you are interested in beginning a new Internship in January for semester 2 (you could start now , if you want, just for the experience!) at an IMMIGRATION LAW office!
