DC Ducks 2020 Intern Scholarship recipient, Carolyn Corl, talks about her studies at the UO, her internship, and what she hopes to do after she graduates.
UOAA DC Ducks – DC Intern Scholarship
The UO Alumni Association National Capital Chapter awards one-to-two $2,000 D.C. Intern Scholarship(s) annually to a UO undergraduate or graduate student participating in a summer internship program in the Washington, DC, metropolitan area. The goal of the DC Intern Scholarship Program is to facilitate skills and career development through interactive hands-on work experience. It is designed to assist with some, but not all, of the living and/or travel expenses incurred during an internship in the DC area. The National Capital Chapter welcomes applications from any UO student without regard to age, race, gender, disability, or ethnicity.
The application for 2024 is now open and is due on May 19, 2024. For questions about the DC Ducks intern scholarships, please contact Jonathan Marks.
