Our take
Internships across UGA departments for Georgia juniors and seniors. Unpaid, commuter, and a real look at a university from the inside.
“Helps an application” is our read on how much an admissions reader is likely to weigh it: Strong means getting in or placing is a real achievement, Solid means it shows real interest and effort, and Light usually means most students who apply and pay can attend. It’s our opinion, not a ranking from any college, and a light one can still be a great summer.
