Internship FAQs
Does my university need an existing agreement with The ALLICE Collective?
No. While The ALLICE Collective has established partnerships with several universities, students from other institutions are welcome to apply. If an affiliation agreement is required by your academic program, we can work with your university to explore establishing one before your placement begins.
How long do internships last?
Internship duration varies by academic program and internship track. Clinical & Community Mental Health interns must commit to a minimum of two semesters. Marketing & Communications and Nonprofit Operations & Administration internships may be completed in one semester, depending on academic requirements and organizational needs.
Can I complete my internship hours at more than one site?
Yes. The ALLICE Collective accepts students who are completing internship hours at another approved placement site, provided they can meet our internship requirements and scheduling needs. Students are responsible for confirming that their academic programs permit placements at multiple sites.
Are internships paid?
Paid internship opportunities are not available at this time.
Can I participate in more than one internship track?
Interns may only participate in one internship track per semester. However, they may apply for a different track in a subsequent semester.
What availability is expected of clinical interns?
Internship schedules vary based on academic requirements, required hours, and organizational needs. When reviewing applications, we consider each applicant's availability alongside our current scheduling needs, which may include weekday mornings, evenings, and Saturdays.
Are remote internships available?
As a community-based organization, The ALLICE Collective requires some in-person availability across all internship tracks. Depending on the track and assigned responsibilities, certain activities may be completed remotely. However, fully remote internships are not available at this time.
