Who is eligible to apply?

HCC’s summer health internships are designed for undergraduate students (4-year college or community college) and recent graduates (up to 3 years out of college) wishing to gain work experience in healthcare, public health, behavioral health, advocacy and biopharma-related settings. While the majority of HCC interns are college juniors, seniors, or recent graduates, we also consider sophomores and freshmen that demonstrate a commitment to community and diversity and interest in public health and/or health care, with demonstrable academic achievement, maturity, and prior work experience.

Students from all academic disciplines are encouraged to apply!

HCC does not provide internships for students enrolled in graduate programs.

International students are also able to apply; however, they must be attending school in the United States and HCC and its sponsoring organizations cannot provide any documentation or support for immigration-related purposes (such as sponsorship or work visas). It is the applicant’s responsibility to obtain appropriate permissions and fulfill any governmental requirements. If you are a DACA student or applying for DACA, we strongly encourage you to apply.
