Depending on the total student credit hours completed and the hours required in your field of study, these internship hours may or may not be applied toward your degree program. If selected, your academic advisor will determine if these credit hours may be applied. The government agencies strongly discourage students from taking any classes.
Permission is needed.
Students begin work when the Legislative session starts, the second Monday in January, but they are required to attend a weeklong orientation which begins the first Monday in January. Students also receive an ASU in-state tuition waiver. Two current reference letters are required and must be submitted with your application. The letters can be from professors, employers, community people, etc. Letters should be addressed to the ASU Legislative and Government Internship Screening Committee and included with your application.
