Dear Prospective Intern/Fellow:

Thank you for your interest in working with the National Congress of American Indians! Please read the relevant information before proceeding to the rest of the form.

Internships: NCAI offers internships for students who are currently enrolled in an institution of higher learning. Internships are usually for the length of a semester or summer session. Internships are unpaid, but many schools will offer college credit, and some tribes may be willing to sponsor NCAI interns from their tribe. NCAI will be glad to provide information to your school or tribe to assist in securing credit or financial support for your internship.

Fellowships: We offer 11-month fellowships beginning at set times throughout the year. Fellowships are for individuals with an undergraduate or graduate degree. NCAI fellows receive a modest stipend to cover living expenses while they serve at NCAI.

If you have any questions or concerns about this application, please feel free to contact Peter Morris at NCAI (pmorris@ncai.org)
