We sponsor full-time internship programs in Dublin, London, Madrid and Paris, the cost of which is roughly equivalent to spending a semester in residence at Stonehill. Generally, all financial aid is applicable to a semester abroad.

An internship in Dublin will give you the chance to work with internationally recognized companies while experiencing the welcoming warmth of a small city.

I chose Stonehill because of its study abroad program. The College really values these opportunities, which is in line with my own beliefs.
