Stipends range from $500-$750 for the semester.
In light of the recent tragedy of the loss of a fellow UMBC student, the deadline for the application submission has been extended to Tuesday, May 6th at noon. Applications can be downloaded at http://www.shrivercenter.org/service_forms.html at the bottom of the page as "Service-Learning Intern Application - Fall 2008." More information and time requirements involved are further detailed within the application. Applications should be submitted to Lori Hardesty either at The Shriver Center or via email at lhardesty@umbc.edu. Please note that interviews will take place immediately afterwards between May 7th-May 12th. A timely submission will increase your chance to be invited in for an interview!!!
