APPLICATION INSTRUCTIONS:
To apply for this internship, please submit your cover letter and
resume VIA EMAIL. Write the cover letter as if it were going directly
to the company, although you will be sending it via Harvardwood (e.g.
'Dear Company X', NOT 'Dear Harvardwood'). Include your direct
contact information in the cover letter, and be sure to state that
you are applying for the internship through the Harvardwood Summer
Internship Program. Please address your letters as follows: Contact
Person, Company X, c/o Harvardwood Summer Internship Program, P.O.
Box 5243, Santa Monica, CA 90409-5243 Please email your application
to the above email address. Most arts/entertainment firms hire
interns on a rolling basis -- thus the earlier you submit your
materials, the more likely you are to get an internship. In addition,
we strongly suggest researching each company before writing your
cover letter. After Harvardwood forwards your materials to the
company, they may contact you directly for more information, to set
up a phone interview, or simply to offer you a position. It is up to
you to weigh any offer(s) you receive and to accept or decline in a
professional manner. If (and ONLY if) you receive an offer but have
questions regarding the status of your application at another
company, you may contact Harvardwood to check on the status of your
other application(s). You may contact Harvardwood at any time with
other questions and concerns.
ACADEMIC CREDIT Please read the following statement on OCS policy
regarding internships requiring school credit: Most internships in
media and arts require that an unpaid intern receive academic credit
and/or be supervised by an academic advisor. Harvard does not grant
academic credit for internships. However, you are eligible to receive
academic credit for an independent study project for which the
internship can form the basis for thought and research. If you are in
good academic standing and you will be returning to the College in
the semester following your internship, OCS will provide you with a
letter explaining Harvard's policy and confirming that you are
eligible to receive academic credit for an independent study project
based on the internship. In order to obtain this letter, you will
need to do the following: AFTER obtaining an internship offer, ask
your Senior Tutor (or if you are a freshman, your freshman proctor or
an assistant freshman dean) to write a brief letter stating your
class year, the fact that you are in good academic standing, and that
you will be returning to the College the semester following your
internship. Letters should be sent to Gail Gilmore at OCS
(ggilmore at fas.harvard.edu). Once this letter is received, the
internship policy letter will be left for you in the pick-up box in
the OCS Reception area. If you plan to apply to multiple internships,
it's a good idea to make copies of the original letter so that you
won't need to request additional letters. If you should decide to
structure the internship as an independent study project, it is your
responsibility to find an academic advisor for the project and to
carry it through to completion. PLEASE WAIT UNTIL YOU ACCEPT AN
INTERNSHIP TO REQUEST THESE DOCUMENTS. THANK YOU. If you have further
questions, feel free to visit with Gail Gilmore during walk-in hours
(schedules are posted in the OCS lobby). If you are graduating or
will not be returning to school after the summer, you will need to
explore other options for fulfilling the credit requirement if
necessary (e.g. enrolling in an independent study at a local
community college). LABOR LAWS AND DISCLAIMER Different states have
different labor laws regarding internships; it is the responsibility
of the participating companies and the individual interns to inform
themselves and ensure that the relevant labor laws are not being
violated. Harvardwood disclaims any and all legal responsibility in
these matters.

you are applying for the internship through the Harvardwood Summer
Internship Program. Please address your letters as follows: Contact
Person, Company X, c/o Harvardwood Summer Internship Program, P.O.
Box 5243, Santa Monica, CA 90409-5243 Please email your application
to the above email address. Most arts/entertainment firms hire
interns on a rolling basis -- thus the earlier you submit your
materials, the more likely you are to get an internship. In addition,
we strongly suggest researching each company before writing your
cover letter. After Harvardwood forwards your materials to the
company, they may contact you directly for more information, to set
up a phone interview, or simply to offer you a position. It is up to
you to weigh any offer(s) you receive and to accept or decline in a
professional manner. If (and ONLY if) you receive an offer but have
questions regarding the status of your application at another
company, you may contact Harvardwood to check on the status of your
other application(s). You may contact Harvardwood at any time with
other questions and concerns. ACADEMIC CREDIT Please read the
following statement on OCS policy regarding internships requiring
school credit: Most internships in media and arts require that an
unpaid intern receive academic credit and/or be supervised by an
academic advisor. Harvard does not grant academic credit for
internships. However, you are eligible to receive academic credit for
an independent study project for which the internship can form the
basis for thought and research. If you are in good academic standing
and you will be returning to the College in the semester following
your internship, OCS will provide you with a letter explaining
Harvard's policy and confirming that you are eligible to receive
academic credit for an independent study project based on the
internship. In order to obtain this letter, you will need to do the
following: AFTER obtaining an internship offer, ask your Senior Tutor
(or if you are a freshman, your freshman proctor or an assistant
freshman dean) to write a brief letter stating your class year, the
fact that you are in good academic standing, and that you will be
returning to the College the semester following your internship.
Letters should be sent to Gail Gilmore at OCS
(ggilmore at fas.harvard.edu). Once this letter is received, the
internship policy letter will be left for you in the pick-up box in
the OCS Reception area. If you plan to apply to multiple internships,
it's a good idea to make copies of the original letter so that you
won't need to request additional letters. If you should decide to
structure the internship as an independent study project, it is your
responsibility to find an academic advisor for the project and to
carry it through to completion. PLEASE WAIT UNTIL YOU ACCEPT AN
INTERNSHIP TO REQUEST THESE DOCUMENTS. THANK YOU. If you have further
questions, feel free to visit with Gail Gilmore during walk-in hours
(schedules are posted in the OCS lobby). If you are graduating or
will not be returning to school after the summer, you will need to
explore other options for fulfilling the credit requirement if
necessary (e.g. enrolling in an independent study at a local
community college).
