Include relevant future internship on resume?

[RP15]

Hi all,

 

I have an internship lined up with Intel next summer in a field that is relevant to my research interests.

In fact, this internship is in an R&D lab, so it will be research oriented as well.

 

As I'm applying to graduate schools now, is it a good idea to list this future internship in my resume? What impression would that have?

I wouldn't put this under resume experience because it hasn't happened yet and anything could change from here to then. Since they make their decisions in the spring for fall acceptances you still wouldn't have started your internship.

However though, I would definetly list this in your SOP to boast up your application. Congrats on the internship.
