minimum of 6 semester hours.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Be a minimum of 16 years of age at the time of application (no exceptions).<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Undergraduate and graduate students must be enrolled in a degree-granting program at a U.S. Department of Education accredited college or university with a course of study aligned to NASA\u2019s needs.

Regardless, make sure that you are checking your phone and email regularly once you have applied to ensure you do not miss a great opportunity!<br><\/p>\n\n\n\n<h1 class=\"wp-block-heading\">When will I hear if I am selected?<br><\/h1>\n\n\n\n<p>Selections may occur any time after you submit your application.

Will I need a car?<br><\/h1>\n\n\n\n<p>Interns are responsible for making their own housing arrangements. This includes locating their own housing options and paying for their housing. While NASA does not provide housing, we will provide you sufficient time and options to locate housing. Interns will have the opportunity to work at one of NASA’s centers located around the country. Many centers will provide resources, such as online forums, where you can connect with other employees to find affordable housing options in the area.<br><br>Your center location and housing options will determine if you need a car. At most centers, unless you find housing within walking distance, you will most likely need a car. However, there are ample public transportation options at some centers.<br><\/p>\n\n\n\n<h1 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"faqpaid\">Are internships paid?<\/h1>\n\n\n\n<p>The majority of interns received a stipend award, which is based on academic level and session duration.<br><\/p>\n\n\n<div id=\"pathway\" class=\"hds-oversized-text width-full maxw-full padding-y-10 padding-x-4 bg-nasa-blue-shade hds-module hds-module-full wp-block-nasa-blocks-oversized-text\">\n\t\t<div class=\"grid-row grid-container grid-container-block flex-align-center padding-x-0 padding-y-0\">\n\t\t\t<div class=\"grid-col-12 tablet:grid-col-10 desktop:grid-col-9\">\n\t\t\t\t<p class=\"hds-oversized-text-content display-120 line-height-sm\">Pathways Intern<\/p>\n\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t<div class=\"grid-col-12 tablet:grid-col-2 desktop:grid-col-3\">\n\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/div><\/div>\n\n\n<p><em>Eligibility and Application Questions<\/em><\/p>\n\n\n\n<h1 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong>What are the eligibility requirements for Pathways?<\/strong><\/h1>\n\n\n\n<p>Candidates must meet the following <a href=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/watch?v=1Ni_mpMorJ8\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">requirements:<\/a><\/p>\n\n\n\n<ol type=\"1\" start=\"1\">\n<li>Be a U.S. citizen.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Be at least 16 years of age.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Be enrolled or accepted for enrollment on at least a half-time basis in an accredited educational institution and maintain enrollment at least half time as defined by the institution.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Be pursuing a degree or certificate.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Currently have and maintain a cumulative 2.9 grade point average on a 4.0 scale.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Be able to complete at least 640 hours of work prior to completing degree\/certificate requirements.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Meet any other requirements described in the announcement, such as specific educational requirements.<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n\n\n\n<div style=\"height:35px\" aria-hidden=\"true\" class=\"wp-block-spacer\"><\/div>\n\n\n\n<h1 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong>Where and when are Pathways opportunities announced?<\/strong><\/h1>\n\n\n\n<p>All of our job postings can be found on USAJobs.gov. <a href=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/watch?v=illvTmlYTVE\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">Application windows<\/a> for the Pathways Intern Program open in the spring and fall each year.

You must create your own responses originally and not copy or adapt them from other sources.
