Welcome to UCA's resource page for The Washington Center for Internships and Academic Seminars. The University has a special affiliation with The Washington Center. If you are interested in an internship in DC for a semester but need to continue to make degree progress with a full load of courses, The Washington Center is for you!  The  Center offers academic seminars so you can continue course work while you complete your internship.

The  Washington Center also has an Intern Abroad Program, with internship sites in London, England.  Other sites are planned for the near future.

The State of Arkansas provides a limited number of $6000 scholarships to The Washington Center. These scholarships make it possible for a student to attend The Washington Center for a semester for about the same cost as a semester at UCA.

Students should contact UCA's liaison to the Washington Center, before preparing their applications.
