Figured I’d start a thread for those of us applying this year. I’m in the DC market, what about you guys?
Chicago! Really hope I make it… this sounds like so much fun!
yea it does. I’m scared I dont have enough service hours though, lol. anyways, good luck!
I don’t have a ton, either. I want to make it in this year, because next year’s summer, I’ll be heading into my freshman year of college, and I want to spend tons of time with my friends and family and maybe work 20 hour weeks
I’m applying! Baltimore market. Do you guys know how selective it is? I couldn’t find any statistics on the website.
I heard that 3-4% get accepted. It’s easier to get into Harvard than this. I also heard that with good essays, it won’t be impossible.
Where did you hear that?
does anybody know whether this internship looks prestigious on ivy league applications?
i would think so
I’m from East Bay market and i’m applying too! I hope we all get in!
I’m from the Chicago market. I decided to apply last minute so I don’t have that much invested. Still hope I make it Good luck!!!
I’m from the Portland, Oregon market! I applied the day before the app was due but this sounds like a great program so I hope I get in! Does anyone know the stats about how many people get in, or the overall quality of the internship?
I applied the day before it was due too lol! I think it’s really competitive

I heard that it looks super good
@abbysm99 -
Same here! It would be awesome if we both got selected!
@clarity171 -
This link says that ~6k people apply, with ~225 selected. That’s info from 2013, so I don’t know how accurate it is now.

lol i’ve been creeping on previous years threads
Haha I’ve been creeping on previous years threads too :P. I’m in the Raleigh/Durham district. I’ve heard that a lot of the people who get accepted have like 400+ service learning hours, which is really intimidating. Fingers crossed!
okay, so apparently they only accept 5 people from each district
Best of luck to my fellow applicants.
Hey guys I’m from Florida . Let me know if anyone gets a call . I know the website said April but I heard people got a notice late February all the way throughout the April. Good luck fellow peeps
Yeah… I’m really hoping that I’m one of the 5 from Chicago, but Chicago is huge
