Please read the instructions on this page carefully before beginning an application.
Important Notes:
If this is your first time completing an application, please enter your e-mail address below under "Start a New Application." You will receive an e-mail to verify your e-mail address and a unique Application Code which you will need to begin your application. Your e-mail address and Application Code are case sensitive.
All students should apply with an email address that is appropriate for professional use (for example, johnsmith2011@gmail.com). School email addresses (johnsmith@example.edu) are also fine. Email addresses such as iluv2shop and princess123 are not appropriate. You can create a free Gmail or Yahoo email account and set up forwarding to your regular email address if necessary.
Parents are discouraged from submitting applications on the behalf of a student. However, we know that many parents want to support the application process in a number of ways and we encourage parents to register below if they would like to start an application to Discovery Internships. Please note, the email address provided below will be the "master" email address associated with your Discovery Internships application.
As part of the application, you will be asked to provide the email address of one reference for your required letter of recommendation, a few short essay responses, and provide a $95 application fee. Please note, Discovery Internships residential tuition starts at $6,299.
You do not need to contact your reference about your request for him or her to provide a letter of recommendation to Discovery Internships. Our admissions office will contact him or her using the email address you provided upon submitting your application to the Discovery Internships program. You can change the designated person at any time prior to application submission. Only one reference is required, however you can provide a second optional reference if you would like.
You don't have to complete the entire application at once. Feel free to complete as many steps as you like. All data will be saved and you'll be able to return to this site and continue working on your application whenever you like by using your email address and unique Application Code to log in.
