The Summer Internship Stipend (SIS) provides eligible University of Arizona undergraduate students with up to $2,500 in financial support while completing a summer internship. The stipend can help cover expenses that may come with an internship, especially if the opportunity is unpaid or requires additional costs such as travel, relocation, housing, or professional attire.
To be eligible, students must:

- Be a U.S. citizen, permanent resident, or eligible for residency benefits under Arizona Proposition 308.
- Have completed at least 30 college credits.
- Be in good academic standing.
- Be hired for an eligible summer internship.
- Meet the program’s need-based financial eligibility requirements.
- Have not previously received a Summer Internship Stipend.
Eligible students are identified based on information from the Office of Scholarships and Financial Aid and will receive an invitation from the LifeLab Team with information on how to apply.
Students who receive the award may receive up to $2,500, which is distributed through their University of Arizona bursar account to help support their internship experience.
