When should I apply for internships?

<p>Hi! I'm a high school junior and I'll be applying to summer residential programs for the next couple of months. I'd ideally want to spend my summer in a prestigious pre-college camp, but since the selective programs don't notify you of acceptance or rejection until April or May, I won't know whether I'm attending until summer's almost here. If an internship is my backup plan, when should I apply to employers? If I start now, I might have to withdraw if accepted into a high school summer program, but if I wait, there probably won't be any internships left. What should I do?</p>

<p>apply now 10c</p>

<p>Just walk in and demand an internship.</p>

<p>You didn’t get any good responses. Just thought I’d point out the the US State department opened their intern app today.</p>

<p>I’m awkwardly obsessed with semi-colons, colons, and dashes. It’s a problem. :p</p>

<p>My school is really good of finding internships. Like the Board of Education, Bio-medical Research, and etc. This summer I’ll be an intern at a Veterinary Hospital. It didn’t just came to me, I had to work really hard lol. My dad and I, had to go to Veterinary hospitals, and see if they had/allowed internships. I would apply now.</p>

<p>Same position as you…im going to apply to a few now, and if I get accepted to my top choice summer program ill just notify the internship that I cant make it.</p>
