It's ridiculously easy to apply for an internship at JPL (<a href="https://www.jpl.nasa.gov/edu/intern/apply/summer-internship-program/">https://www.jpl.nasa.gov/edu/intern/apply/summer-internship-program/</a>), but for other sites the application looks more like what one would expect for an internship position (<a href="https://intern.nasa.gov/ossi/web/public/main/">https://intern.nasa.gov/ossi/web/public/main/</a>)</p> <p>Good luck to all!</p> <table align="center" cellspacing="1" style="border:1px solid #486090; width:98%"> <tbody> <tr> <td style="background-color:#486090">Quote:</td> </tr> <tr> <td style="background-color:#FFFFB0"> <p>Hi All,</p> <p> </p> <p>I applied to a few REUs last semester and am applying to around 7 this semester, so I decided to put some of what I have learned and the link for the NSF site here for reference to other undergraduates.</p> <p>You can find the list of REU topics here: https://www.nsf.gov/crssprgm/reu/reu_search.jsp</p> <p>Just click on your topic of choice and a list will show you all of the offered REUs</p> <p><strong>Requirements:</strong></p> <p>All REUs that I have found require you to do four things:</p> <p>Fill out the online form</p> <p>Obtain 2-3 reccomendation letters</p> <p>Write a personal statement</p> <p>Sumbmit an unofficial copy of your transcript (easily downloaded via buckeyelink)</p> <p>You might also get to submit a resume</p> <p><strong>Expectations:</strong></p> <p>Acceptance to REUs are rare, especially as a sophomore. I would suggest searching for research that fit well with your skillset and/or interests and not focus as much on the university hosting it.</p> <p>Also, apply to a good number of them, especially since you just need to make a few tweaks on your personal statement between universities.</p> <p>Note that most application deadlines are in February, but some are occasionally during late January so plan ahead, especially with your rec letters!</p> <p> </p> <p>Best of luck!</p> <p>Suren Gourapura</p> </td> </tr> </tbody> </table> <p> </p></td> </tr> </tbody> </table> </p><p> </p>
