If approved for funding, one of two awards will be offered:

A Micro-Internship Stipend: $400/week

• Must work 20-29 hours/week
• Must work 6-10 weeks

An Internship Stipend: $730/week

• Must work 30-40 hours/week
• Must work 6-10 weeks

The maximum award for a full-time commitment for summer 2025 is $7,300. SSII Fund is unable to offer a Cost of Living Supplement for high cost-of-living internship sites. We recommend that applicants forecast their summer budget using our budget worksheet to assess whether this award will be sufficient for their costs. 

Funding will be disbursed in two installments. The first installment, which will be 75 percent of the total funding awarded, will be provided through SAFE in May/early June. The second installment (the final 25 percent) will be provided through SAFE after program requirements are completed. 

Students who accept a SSII Fund award for a summer internship:

• May not receive supplemental funding from other Princeton sources for your SSII internship 
• Must disclose if you are attending global seminars or other Princeton programs this summer
• May not accept more than $7,300 total in funding for summer internships this summer
• Must submit any changes to an accepted internship before the final deadline. Awards are not transferable to other internship offers.

• An SSII advising appointment scheduled in Handshake and statement of commitment 
• A learning contract signed by your supervisor, due the end of your first week of your internship
• Weekly written reflections throughout your internship
• Mid-term and final evaluation forms, completed by you and your supervisor
