ISF will start accepting online applications at the beginning of October.

The deadline to apply for an ISF Summer Congressional Policy Internship is on December 23rd.

After applying, selected candidates will be given a conditional acceptance by ISF, and ISF will use its Congressional connections to place candidates in Congressional offices.

Candidates will interview with offices. Once an office extends an offer, a final acceptance will be given to the candidate by ISF.

Exact internship dates will be negotiated between the candidate and the office but must start by early June and end no sooner than the end of July. Interns will work full-time hours with Congressional offices (as set by the office) and are not permitted to have any other internships or employment.

Interns are required to attend ISF-hosted sessions and workshops throughout their time in D.C.

Interns will end the program with an exit interview. Upon completion, participants can join the ISF alumni network and continue to receive mentorship and support.
