Question

Can college students intern at U.S. embassies abroad?

Answer 1

Never saw one do that.  However, the Department of State may have internships in Washington DC.

Answer 2

Actually, they do. Most of the internship positions are in Washington, of course, but they do post some people overseas, in the more user friendly posts. Part of the difficulty in getting substantive internships is the necessity for security clearances. Plus, the bulk of the internships are unpaid, and DC isn't exactly cheap. Housing overseas would depend on availability, but usually, they'll put you in something that's open until the next officer shows up.  Check out http://careers.state.gov/students/progra...
