The Saul T. Wilson, Jr., Internship Program is open to undergraduate and graduate students in veterinary medicine and biomedical sciences. Applicants must agree to work for the agency during school breaks for a minimum of 640 hours prior to completion of studies. Positions are available in many locations. USDA will try to match students with desired locations. Undergraduate students may receive up to $7,500 per year; and graduate students may receive up to $15,000 per year. They will also experience paid employment during summer and school breaks as a Veterinary Student Trainee with APHIS Veterinary Services; and have the opportunity to possibly convert, without further competition, to a permanent position with APHIS upon completing a D.V.M degree and meeting all Pathways Program requirements. A copy of your DD-214 is required, if you are claiming Veterans' Preference. Please visit the award's website for more information.
