In addition, students may be responsible for general office organization and upkeep. The most successful interns are competent at working individually or in group settings, and are committed to learning as much as possible from the experience. Students working for academic credit work three to four days per week (24-32 hours) to allow time for academic and research obligations. Internships with Early Deadlines Because of the need to satisfy a security clearance, some internship deadlines occur before Washington Program deadlines. These organizations include the Department of State, the Department of Defense, and the White House.
