No applications will be accepted after this date.

The majority of our internship positions are in person. However, host institutions will communicate in advance, providing students ample opportunity to make housing plans if they are in person.

*Please note: the majority of our internships are in-person. Applicants who are only seeking remote opportunities reduce their chances of being selected for the internship.

CASE will provide all applicants access to this information during the application process. You will find with the list of host institutions; project descriptions; the stipend they are offering; and any additional benefits (i.e., housing, meal card, parking, etc).

Your application will be sent out to the institutions that you have selected the week of February 7, 2025. While you wait to hear from your selected schools, take the time to research the institution, the advancement office and the intern project description so you are well prepared to interview should you be invited to interview. (Please note: most interviews will take place online.) 

Research the host institution and the advancement office. Look at their mission statement, core values, etc. so you can see how they align with yours and how you can be an asset to the team. Prepare three to five questions to ask at the end of the interview. Practice interviewing with a friend or a professional.

CASE will provide one webinar in late February for all external applicants providing both beneficial information and tips as applicants move through the interview process. 

Yes. It is possible you may be invited by multiple schools to interview for a position. You are allowed to interview with all host institutions that contact you. Treat this as a job interview. Remember, just as hosts are interviewing you, you are interviewing them to make sure it’s the place you’d like to do an internship.

Applicants will be notified if they have been selected by March 31, 2025. Should a host institution need an extension to make their final decision, applicants will be notified.

The CASE Advancement Internship is competitive. We cannot guarantee that all applicants will be contacted for an interview and subsequently placed in an internship. Should you not be selected, CASE staff can offer assistance and coaching for applying the following year.  

We understand that you may be invited to interview with multiple hosts. We recommend you having a conversation with any hosts who have made you an offer and set an agreed upon time that you will contact them to either accept or decline the offer. Your host is required to give you at least three business days to accept or decline an offer.

Because hosts will want to offer the opportunity to other candidates should you decline, we recommend making a decision within three business days of being offered the position.

Normally, housing is not provided by the institution, leaving the responsibility to you. Begin to prepare. If you have been selected by an institution that does not provide housing, we recommend you start early in finding a place to live that meets your needs.

CASE and your host institution will go over how and when you will be issued your stipend. Should your institution have CASE administer your stipend, you will receive it in two installments (Week 4 and Week 8).

CASE will send you a letter of acceptance for the Advancement Internship, and in the months leading up to your internship, CASE members will email you and your host institution with all the updates regarding your internship.

If you have any questions regarding the CASE Advancement Internship or the application process, please get in touch with Thais Andrade, Talent Coordinator, at tandrade@case.org
