The SCA offers positions at all times throughout the year. Some positions run during the summer, while others run throughout the school year. Each internship will indicate the dates of the program, so you can find internships that match your dates of availability. Internships can last anywhere from twelve weeks to twelve months.
Our young adult internships require a 40-hour-per-week commitment, unless otherwise noted.
SCA internships are expense-paid. They provide a variety of allowances or grants designed to help offset the costs associated with traveling to and staying at the site of the internship. Typical positions include a one-time travel allowance and weekly living allowance. Many positions also include some sort of housing or housing stipend.
The SCA provides members with a travel allowance. The travel allowance will be added to the US Bank card provided to you by the SCA. The amount added is dependent on your site location. The standard amount is $650. However, you may be eligible for more travel allowance if your site is not in the contiguous U.S., is in a remote location, or requires a vehicle. If your position is listed as local only, you may not qualify for the standard travel allowance but may receive commuting travel benefits instead.
Members are responsible for booking their own travel. We encourage members to look into booking flights with Southwest Airlines, the SCA’s official airline partner. They do not charge change fees or baggage fees (up to 2 bags).
