The 2022 ASME internship program will run from June 1 through Aug. 12. Recent participants have worked at Advertising Age, Food Network Magazine, Inc., Parents, The Pioneer Woman Magazine and more.
Applicants must still be a third- or fourth-year college student as of December 2021 and expect to graduate no earlier than spring 2022. Only full-time students with a grade point average of at least 3.0 will be considered for an internship.
How to apply
The Greenlee School may recommend up to two students for the program. (Applicants recommended by journalism departments or career-guidance offices are given preference over students from the same school.)

- A one-page cover letter (addressed to Sidney Holt, Executive Director, ASME) explaining why you are interested in magazine journalism; why you want to participate in the Magazine Internship Program; and why you are qualified to be an ASME intern. The selection committee wants to know how your course of study has prepared you to be an ASME intern and how you plan to use the skills and insights you gain from participation in the program not only to advance your career but to benefit the publications where you may work in the immediate future
- A one-page letter of recommendation from an educator who can attest to your abilities and experience
- A one-page letter of recommendation from an intern supervisor or employer who can attest to your abilities and experience in the classroom and in an office

Greenlee School selections will be made the week of Nov. 15. You will be notified in time to upload and submit your complete application, including the Greenlee School's one-paragraph letter of nomination, and pay the $40 processing fee online before ASME's official Wednesday, Dec. 1 deadline.
The Greenlee School offers a number of 499A summer internship scholarships. Greenlee primary majors who are selected for ASME may apply for a 499A internship scholarship in the spring to help offset expenses if they are using the internship to fulfill their 499A requirement. More info will be available in early spring 2022

Internship spotlight: Matt Belinson |
What I learned writing for a community newspaper
"My time in Ottumwa this summer gave me a chance to grow as a writer and gave me added confidence in what I’m capable of covering. I loved interviewing high school students, coaches and their parents because they are so genuine. My internship in Ottumwa gave me a refreshing look on how to approach interviews and come up with new ways to keep the conversation going." Read more >>

Why you should care about podcasting |
In 2018, 44% of Americans said they had listened to a podcast. Three years later, in 2021, that percentage rose to 58% and is expected to continue to grow. With two million podcasts available, the potential for this popular medium is endless.
For the fourth time, Greenlee offered a short-course intensive audio lab focused on creating a podcast this fall. Taught by Gary Sawyer and Ursula Rudenberg, this class aims to walk students through the process of making a podcast. For Rudenberg, she hopes students walk away with the confidence to conceptualize and create a podcast from beginning to end.
