Dear ODU Students, Faculty, and Staff,

 

The Monarch Internship and Co-Op Office is pleased to announce the upcoming launch of our Summer 2025 Internship Micro-Grant Application, opening Monday, May 19.

 

These support grants aim to reduce financial barriers for any ODU student participating in an unpaid or underpaid internship or other work-based learning experience. Eligible expenses may include:

 

Transportation or commuting costs

 

Uniforms, tools, or required materials

 

Temporary housing or relocation assistance

 

To be eligible, students must have a confirmed Summer 2025 internship AND be registered in a summer internship course, either for credit (departmental course such as CYSE 368 or HIST 368) or zero credit (UNIV 068 or GRAD 668). 

 

Important Dates:

 

Application Opens: Monday, May 19, 2025

 

Application Closes: Friday, May 23, 2025 at 11:59 PM

 

Note: Incomplete applications will not be reviewed.

 

Awards are competitive and not guaranteed.

 

This announcement is intended to help students prepare in advance. The application portal link will be distributed on Monday via email and announcements.

 

We are committed to helping ODU students gain meaningful hands-on experience by minimizing financial obstacles along the way!
