Dear scholars,
 
We hope you had a wonderful spring break and got the chance to relax and recharge before returning to classes. Now is the perfect time to be on the lookout for any upcoming summer internship opportunities to enhance your resume. Don't forget to also utilize your university's career services to stay up to date on the latest postings provided by your school. If you need additional support with your resume,  networking tips, or interview prep, your advisor or our Career Community (password: Connect2020) can also be a valuable resource.

Once you secure an internship for the summer, you will need to submit an Internship Work Plan (IWP) to us before you begin. If you are new to IWPs or need a refresher, we will send out instructions detailing the IWP process to all scholars very soon, so be on the lookout for it in your inbox.

Best,
ScholarMatch

Do you feel tired all the time? 
We all get a bit tired, but normal fatigue gets better with proper rest.
