Terps for Change Undergraduate Intern Application | Fall 2025-Spring 2026

Welcome

Thank you for your interest in becoming a Terps for Change Intern in the Fall 2025-Spring 2026 School Year!

The LCSL-Terps for Change (T4C) Intern Program is designed to be a “higher order” undergraduate student experience. Interns will come into the internship at a developmental level ready to take on complex assignments/roles that require a deeper understanding of program design, curriculum development, peer education, learning outcomes, and the program and office vision. The internship is a structured experience guided by on-going mentorship, supervision, and feedback focused on the student’s learning through knowledge acquisition and experience. Terps for Change Interns are paid positions that are vital to the success of the Terps for Change Program. Serving as the T4C Internship is a year-long commitment and requires a significant amount of dedication in time and energy. T4C Interns will be expected to work an average of 10 hours per week.
