    Most internship in the NTDC program are unpaid; however
    some offices may choose to compensate their interns with
    modest stipends.
    What is the application process?
    The application process is made up of three steps: the
    written application, a group interview, and a panel
    interview. After applications are turned in, all applicants
    attend a group interview. If chosen to go through the next
    round, applicants will then attend a panel interview. The
    panel will select the final students offered the opportunity
    to participate in the NTDC program.

    of housing paid for by the program?
    No, it is not. Although it is not enough to cover all costs, the
