WFU Press Internship Application
Wake Forest University Press is the premier publisher of Irish poetry in North America, and our office is located near the Wake Forest campus at 2518 Reynolda Rd. Interns are expected to work in our office 6-8 hours a week during the semester.

We accept internship applications on a rolling basis for the fall and spring semesters of every year. Students may take the internship simply for the learning experience, or, once accepted, you may also register for class credit. All interns (regardless of taking for class credit) are required to intern for two semesters.

Please allow at least 7 business days for a response from the Press. Because of limited physical space, we are only able to accept a few interns each year, but applicants should feel free to apply multiple times.
