Experience a transformative 12-week internship in London, one of the world's premier cities for career development and cultural exploration. This AIFS Abroad program places you in guaranteed internship positions across 20+ career fields including advertising, marketing, fashion, finance, law, hospitality, journalism, and more. London's status as a global center for business, finance, fashion, and media means you'll work alongside top-tier international companies while gaining invaluable professional experience that will shape your career trajectory.

During your fall semester abroad (September 4 – November 28, 2026), you'll live in student housing in central London with internet access included, giving you the perfect base to explore one of Europe's most vibrant cities. The program goes far beyond the internship itself. You'll participate in AIFS Abroad's award-winning Global Career Readiness Program, which includes the CliftonStrengthsFinder® assessment, one-on-one career coaching, interview preparation, and on-site networking events. An on-site Location Coordinator will support you throughout your stay, helping you settle in and making check-ins to ensure you're thriving both professionally and personally.

The placement process is personalized and rigorous. AIFS Abroad's enrollment team works with you one-on-one to understand your skills, talents, and career aspirations. They assess your academic knowledge, professional goals, language proficiency, and expectations to match you with a role that aligns with your ambitions. Once matched, you'll interview with your manager before the placement is confirmed, ensuring a strong fit from day one. When you arrive in London, you'll have full support to launch your internship and maximize your professional growth.

Beyond work, London offers endless cultural and social opportunities. Your program fee includes a rich calendar of weekly cultural activities and social events, day trips to Stonehenge and Salisbury, Cambridge, and optional three-day excursions to the Scottish Highlands featuring Edinburgh, Loch Ness, and the Isle of Skye. You'll explore West End historic shopping districts, London's famous fleamarkets, the Thames by boat, and iconic sites like the British Museum, National Gallery, and Tate Modern. With more than 300 languages spoken in London and a population exceeding 9 million, you'll experience true cultural immersion.

You can earn 3 credits through the International Internship course issued by Fairfield University (AIFS Abroad's School of Record), with additional courses available for a fee. This option allows you to apply credit toward your degree and access existing financial aid, making the program even more valuable academically. The comprehensive program fee of $12,490 includes housing, all excursions, cultural activities, health and career support, and a free Eurail Global Pass (near $500 value) to explore Europe. Rolling admissions means you can expect acceptance confirmation within 2 working days of completing your application. Whether you're a first-year student, junior, senior, or recent graduate, this program positions you to gain real-world experience, build your professional network, and return to your home country with credentials and connections that set you apart in the job market.
