How to select available students for internships

If you did not have enough students apply for your internship, you can select and send out more offers using the Available students page. This page will only appear if you are signed in, are an internship creator or co-owner and have created an internship in a cycle. Watch this video on how to select a student from the available students page.

What is the available students page?

The Available students page displays all student candidates who are not actively participating in an internship for a given cycle. Students will only display on this page if they submitted at least one application in the cycle and:

  • Did not accept an internship offer in the cycle.
  • Did not respond to an internship offer they received.
  • Did not receive an internship offer in the cycle.

How do I view available students?

First, you can only select and send out more offers for internships that are In-progress.

  1. Use the Available students link in the top navigation or go to your internship detail page and select the Find available students button in the Applicants table.
  2. Select an internship cycle from the internship cycle dropdown.
  3. Use the Keyword search, Sort by and Filters to narrow the list of available students.
  4. Click on a student’s name to view their most recent application.

How do I select available students?

You can select a student for your internship from their most recent application page.

  1. Use the Select student for dropdown to choose which internship you want to offer to the student.
  2. Click the Select student button—you will go to the mentor agreement page.
  3. Read the VSFS mentor agreement and check the box to confirm you have read it and agree.
  4. Click the Select student and email button.

The student will receive an offer email and will have seven days to accept or decline the internship offer. We will remove the student from the Available students page and they will appear in the Selected applicants table of the internship they were selected for.
