City Internships | 2019/20 Pre-Launch Notification 2021

In-person programs resume summer 2021

While we have refrained from launching our summer 2021 in-person programs so far, we are now taking a more – albeit cautiously – optimistic stance, and will be opening admissions for all summer 2021 programs publicly on Sunday 1st November.

Naturally, places are limited and allocated on a first come, first served basis. And we anticipate unusually high demand. 

Correspondingly, I would like to invite students interested in joining a summer 2021 in-person program to apply now, in advance of the public release, here:

www.city-internships.com/apply/ 

(We will not be providing in-person programs before June 2021. Yet, our expanded covid-19 assurances and student financial aid will remain in place for all students indefinitely.)


Special remote programs for seniors & new graduates

Our attention in recent months has largely been focused on those whose careers face most imminent disruption; seniors without work experience and new graduates without direct pathways to work.

In concert with our academic partners, we have developed two special derivatives of our Remote Program – SemesterAccelerator and GradLaunch – to address the needs of these two groups.

The former is a part-time, semester-length program for Seniors (and other students similarly affected by widespread internship cancellations this year) to gain work experience before they graduate and enter the jobs market. The latter is specifically for recent graduates currently navigating the (obviously distressed) jobs market.

Students may learn more here. And apply here.

Academic partnerships

We were required to redirect a significant proportion of our resources towards ensuring our Spring and Summer students were successfully transferred from in-person to remote placements earlier this year. And, as a consequence, I allowed progress on new Academic Partnership enquiries to fall by the wayside.

For those who submitted academic partnership requests in June and July, but did not receive a response, I apologize. I will reach out to you directly in the coming days.

With thanks and best wishes
