STATEHOUSE (Oct. 8, 2024) – The Oct. 31 deadline to apply for an Indiana House Republican internship during the 2025 legislative session is fast approaching, according to State Reps. Matt Lehman (R-Berne) and Lorissa Sweet (R-Wabash).
Lehman said this full-time, spring semester internship is Monday through Friday at the Statehouse in Indianapolis during the legislative session, which will start in January and conclude in April. House interns earn $900 biweekly and can gain academic credit through their college or university.
"Interning at the Statehouse gives young Hoosiers the opportunity to develop fundamental skills, which will help them in their future careers," Lehman said. "The deadline to apply for the internship program is almost here, and it's important that you don't miss out on this exciting opportunity."
Sweet said interested college sophomores, juniors, seniors, graduate students and recent graduates of all majors should visit indianahouserepublicans.com/internship to complete the application before Oct. 31.
"Students who intern at the Statehouse can use their experience to enhance their resume and make connections that can lead to jobs in state government or the private sector," Sweet said. "The deadline is fast approaching, so I encourage students from my area to apply now."
Indiana House internships include free parking, career and professional development assistance, and enrollment access to an Indiana government class. Interns are also eligible to apply for a competitive $3,000 scholarship to use toward undergraduate and graduate expenses.
The program offers opportunities for students to work in various departments related to their studies, including legislative operations, policy and communications.
Applications are available online at indianahouserepublicans.com/internship and are due by Oct. 31.
