Information for Host Institutions

Fellows listening to presentation

1. Who can host an intern?

Anyone that is a NASPA member or who is on a campus with an NASPA institutional membership can host a summer NUFP Fellow as an intern. You do not need to have a NUFP Fellow on your campus in order to host one in the summer and you can host as many as you would like!

2. What is the commitment that my campus is making?

By agreeing to host a Fellow(s) on your campus, you promise your intern a student affairs experience on a campus other than their own. We ask that you give your intern specific job responsibilities and expose your intern to as many student affairs departments and administrators as possible. We also ask that you help them become more familiar with NASPA and the field.

Internship start and end dates are flexible. You work these out with the Fellow you choose to hire. In the past most internships have lasted 6-8 weeks during June and July.

We require that you pay your intern a minimum of $1,500 for a 6-8 week internship. We do not require you to pay for housing, meals and/or transportation to and from your campus, but we do require that you make these arrangements for your student. Please note that if you do cover these expenses, this makes your position much more attractive to Fellows.

3. What is the process?

Institutions wishing to host a Fellow as an intern submit internship descriptions online. After the position submission deadline, Fellows are notified of the internship opportunities available and submit their applications online - ranking their top five choices.

After the application deadline, host institutions receive copies of all Fellows' applications and preferences. Host institutions then set-up interviews with the candidates. While most often they are held on the phone, some have done them in person if both parties are attending the NASPA Annual Conference.

In order to be fair to all candidates, host institutions can not begin making offers until the specified date.

Once a Fellow has accepted a position, the Fellow and/or institution must notify the NASPA office of the match.

4. How do I submit my internship posting?

Simple...Submit your posting online.
