There is an initial registration fee of USD 100 and a program fee of USD 1150 which is owed once the participant is nominated for a position. The program fee includes a paid internship placement with an international host company or university, pre-departure orientation, work authorization and visa assistance, in-country support, re-entry webinar upon completion of the program, and access to the global alumni network. The participant is responsible for airfare and any costs associated with the visa process. Housing, meals, and transportation within the host country are generally covered by the stipend. Insurance can be purchased through Cultural Vistas.
All available internship opportunities can be accessed once your account is verified and you have paid the registration fee via our online platform. An initial idea of what kind of internships are available can be found at IAESTE A.s.b.l.
The IAESTE United States will review each applicant’s internship preferences and supporting documents. Interviews may be conducted with the top candidates for each position.
Once a student has accepted his/her nomination, the application materials will be sent to the international host employer for a final review. Although each internship position has been reserved for an IAESTE student, the final decision regarding acceptance belongs to the host employer. It generally takes between four to six weeks to receive a final response from the host employer.
