<p>Hello, I have looked through the threads and have not seen any recent discussion on the HACU National Internship Program. I have applied for Summer 2014 and am curious if anyone from College Confidential has been a part of it.</p>
<p>I am mostly curious if anyone knows the time-frame in which potential participants are notified of acceptance. I am also wondering how the experience went for others, and want those of us who are waiting to have some median to discuss about this program.</p>
<p>Lastly, I keep wondering if this program has any notoriety what so ever, I am hoping that this internship can help bolster my chances for another one in the upcoming year.</p>
<p>Thank you all for any information you have, and good luck to those also applying!</p>
<p>I have applied, too. I don’t know when they will contact applicants about the next step/placements. As far as notoriety of the program, I would imagine that any prestige associated with HACU in and of itself is isolated to those who have participated in the program. However, I know people who have gotten full-time jobs (with corporate partners, at least) because of their internships. The internship with the company/agency is a regular internship carrying with it any of the usually associated notoriety.</p>
<p>Thank you for the reply. Well I asked and was told that the selection process for certain agencies has already begun - I was not one of them. However, they stated that the next round of selections begins in April. </p>
