ASE

Note on Stipends: Due to unprecedented economic hardships affecting our partner organizations, many of our mentors have not yet determined whether they are able to offer a stipend to students who are accepted for their respective internship.

If a mentor has confirmed the availability of a stipend, the position description will state the value of the stipend.
We urge you to frequently visit the ASE website/blog where ASE staff will post internship description updates that reflect revised stipend amounts (if available).
As a reminder, any ASE student who is both selected for an internship and qualifies for the federal Free or Reduced Lunch Program, will be awarded a $2,000 stipend from Saturday Academy.
If you would like to contact ASE directly, please call 503.200.5862 or email ase@saturdayacademy.org
