GarandMarine:
Interns at a school library can be paid in course credit I think.
Barmymoo:
... are you serious? Instead of money, they give you free grades?
Method of Madness:
Well it counts as credit towards graduation (and on-the-job training is definitely educational), so it's basically working for scholarship money.
KOK:
If the internship is a requirement for your degree, that may be incentive enough, without any pay needed.
Zebediah:
These days a lot of companies won't hire someone straight out of college unless they've done multiple unpaid internships. Big change from when I was in school - I was able to work the whole time I was in college and get out with no student loan debt. Now you still have to work, but for free, and pile up huge amounts of debt while you're doing it. Unless you have rich parents, of course.
