NECC Internship Stipend | Fall 2025 Applications
2025-08-11 00:00 - 2025-09-16 23:59
Are you a current student doing an internship for course credit this fall semester? Consider applying for a stipend!
Northern Essex Community College is providing stipends to assist students completing a for-credit, unpaid or underpaid internship, or other experiential learning. This is intended to help alleviate the cost of expenses and the reduced ability to work while completing this academic experience. We have limited stipends available and anticipate a competitive application pool. Practicums and clinicals could be considered eligible for this stipend; however, some programs have external accreditation restrictions that prohibit them from receiving payment for experiential learning hours required for licensure (e.g., Respiratory Care, Sleep Technologist).
Applications will be accepted from August 11th until September 16th at 11:59 pm.
Visit the website below to review eligibility criteria, guidelines, and apply.
