Student Life Internship Program
Interested in hosting a student intern in your department?
As the Student Life Internship Program enters its second semester, we're excited to continue connecting Office of Student Life departments with talented student interns through high-impact, project-based, paid internship experiences. The program provides funding and support for departments to advance meaningful initiatives while helping students build career-ready skills through hands-on work. Student interns work on clearly defined projects, receive structured coaching and mentorship, and produce tangible deliverables that contribute to departmental goals while enhancing their professional development.
We're hosting information sessions for departments across the Office of Student Life who are interested in learning more about the program, application process, internship project design, and supervisor support available through Buckeye Commons. Whether you have a project you've been hoping to move forward or are looking for new ways to engage student talent, the Student Life Internship Program offers a structured and supported approach to creating impactful learning experiences for students while advancing your department's work.
