2013 Undergraduate Internship Program Application Procedure

In order to be considered for an internship position, the BFS must receive a completed application package by 5:00pm on Friday, March 15th 2013.  Late applications may be considered in the case that specific positions remain unfilled; contact the BFS with inquiries. Application packages are considered complete upon receipt of the following 3 items (click below to download the MS Word Files):

• Application Form: to be completed by the applicant
• 2 Recommendation Forms: to be completed by 2 different individuals who will provide insight into the applicant's character and abilities.

  It is the applicant’s responsibility to see that 2 different individuals each submit a completed recommendation form. Recommendation forms are to be submitted directly by the referees. It is important that applicants understand that their applications will not be considered complete unless both of their referees have completed and sent recommendation forms.

Completed forms may be submitted by email or by hard-copy.
