Extra $1000/week?! Does anyone know if that's the same for everyone who lives far enough away? That's not too bad on top of the stipend.
Yup, it's the same no matter what. Like the travel stipends as long as you are far enough away.

so the internship doesnt pay hourly??
No - you're already making 15-20 an hour to do nothing during the school year so I guess they figure it's enough. Normal internships for an undergrad pay about $15 an hour if you get them and are not part of SMART. The orientation says "internship support payments are not in exchange for work done"

Only SMART pays you, just like for the travel stipend they'll approve you before summer starts for the extra $1000 a week. That way you can rent somewhere to live and a car etc while interning.

Since they are giving a yearly stipend for the completion of school is the internship over the summer also paid? and the job once we graduate is then changed to a salary pay??
