Echols Outreach Interns Application Open

Are you passionate about diversity, equity, and inclusion? Want to help these principles flourish in the Echols Program? We are excited to announce new positions in the Echols team – we are seeking up to 10 Echols Scholars to serve as Echols Outreach Interns for the Spring Semester. The student interns will collaborate with the Echols team to:

1. develop inclusive programming for current Echols Scholars,
2. participate in outreach and interactions with prospective students from underrepresented backgrounds, and 
3. connect with current first-year UVA students who are eligible to apply to the Echols Program.

Students in these positions will earn $10/hour for their time, for up to 50 hours over the course of the semester. The student work efforts could include, for example, letter writing, phone calls, one-on-one conversations, group events (online for Spring 2021), and leading panel discussions on the Echols Scholars Program and life at UVA.
