Midnight in Paris! w/ Owen Wilson and Marion Cottilard.

Hi Whiskers, I did the internship last year. I did not hear back about my status until one month after the notification date - so don't fret and best of luck to you! if you have any questions about the internship, feel free to PM me.

Did you guys hear back yet? They haven't notified me either whether they have received my application or not...

Thanks for your reply Marcello, I did just that. Also, there is an old thread here on the PGC Internship exactly about this. It appears it isn't uncommon for applicants not to hear back for a few days after the notification deadline, so don't lose hope! Good luck to the both of you! Hope you will be reporting back with good news!

Hello MarcelloMarcelli, I am applying to the internship as well; though, I am applying to the December 1st deadline. Quick question: we only need to send in the first page of the application form right? Thanks! and best of luck!

Am I the only one who hasn't been notified yet...?

they hire about ten for the 12-month internships.

Hi guys, How good does your Italian have to be for the program?

Thank you GardeningGrad, that is wonderful advice.

Former curator and now director of the Metropolitan Museum, Thomas P. Campbell, holds degrees from both Oxford and a PhD from Courtauld.

Hi everyone, As an art history graduate, I, too, never fully grasped the politics of paid/unpaid museum internships. I agree that often times undergrads are bogged down with administrative duties that their superiors don't want to perform themselves--and while that is a component of virtually any internship, I hate it when it is the basis. The Met internship is highly coveted by most art history students, no doubt, but I know a few former (undergrad) interns whose experience entailed routine admin. tasks; of course this easily can change as a grad student as someone noted earlier here. For those that are still pursuing their BA, I encourage you all to look into an incredible and substantial internship opportunity at the Smithsonian Institution: Katzenberger Foundation Art History Internship; it pays $5000 for 10 weeks and involves substantial projects in curatorial/research departments of different Smithsonian units. I feel extremely fortunate to have been selected for this internship last summer; my project involved considerable responsibility and I learned a lot! Cheers!
