NYC Summer Internship 2026

My time in NYC through Beyond Academy was perfect, they have every step well thought out with loads of support along the way, especially from the programme leaders in the city, and those behind the scenes also! I was placed with a brilliant, well establish immigration law firm in FiDi and it Will be amazing for my CV and general life experience. I lived in an amazing accommodation with direct, fast links to everywhere in the city and plenty of shops and resturaunts on my doorstep. I couldn’t fault Beyond Academy for any of the process, they were brilliant.

If you did this all over again, what's one thing you would change?
I would definitely financially plan better, it’s a very expensive process start to finish. It is completely worth every penny, but spending money might be overlooked within all of the costs. It is important to budget atleast £1,000 more than you think! It’s expensive and you don’t want to ever say no to anything in the city so make sure you have more than you think you need!
Pros
  • People
  • Events
  • Opportunity
What other participants should know
  • The city isn’t very clean
  • Parts of the city are dangerous

A experience of a life time

I went on an internship with beyond academy for 6 weeks in NYC and honestly it has been the best experience of my life. The community team is amazing, they made sure that everything was as planned, all the activities were super fun and it was great meeting so many people from all over the world.

It was my first time travelling alone and my first time doing an internship and I will never forget this experience, I made friends that I will keeping in contact with and overall the memories I made will stay with me forever.

Highly recommended

Beyond Academy gives college students the opportunity to have an unforgettable experience in a new place as well as concrete work experience both for a more complete resume and sharper skills to apply in your career. I met some amazing people and developed a great relationship with my host company. If you need an internship, a new and unfamiliar setting to promote growth, or a new group of friends beyond academy is the place to put your trust in. It challenged me to adapt quickly, build confidence, and gain valuable experience that will benefit me long after the internship ended.

Thank you so much for sharing your experience, Gabriel! We’re so glad your summer in New York gave you the opportunity to build meaningful connections, grow your confidence, and gain hands-on experience that you can carry with you into your future career.

We especially love hearing that your relationship with your host company was such a positive part of your experience. An internship is about so much more than adding a line to your resume, it’s about challenging yourself, adapting to a new environment, and discovering what you’re capable of along the way.

Thank you for trusting Beyond Academy with your summer in NYC and for recommending us to fellow students looking to build their resumes and experience something new. We’re so happy you made memories and connections that will stay with you long after your internship!

A great experience!

They try their best to accommodate, help, and socialize as much as they can. Obviously, they can’t accommodate for everything, but they try their best to find good living conditions. Mine were pretty good, it was just the people that were living with me that I sometimes wouldn’t see eye-to-eye with, which isn’t their fault. The activities were engaging and fun, and the various workshops they held were also very intriguing and fun. The city was a vibe and the employees were very helpful, even with problems they didn’t necessarily have to concern themselves with.

8 week programme with Beyond

Spending 8 weeks in New York through Beyond Academy was such a valuable experience for me. The internship placement was well-suited to my interests, and the team I worked with was welcoming and made sure I learned a lot during my time there.

I stayed in Brooklyn and met so many people from different backgrounds, and the weekly activities that Beyond organised gave us opportunities to explore NYC together. This program gave me both professional growth and personal memories I’ll never forget. I would recommend it to anyone looking for an exciting and supportive internship abroad.

What is your advice to future travelers on this program?
New York is an incredible city but can be expensive, so plan ahead for food, transport, and activities outside the program. For the internship- don’t be afraid to ask questions or take initiative – it’ll make your experience richer.
Pros
  • Made friends on the programme who I loved and will be staying in contact with
  • Great thing to put on my resumé
What other participants should know
  • Accommodation was not great and the people in my flat were not all students so you could get unlucky with who you are with.
  • New York can be unsafe so just keep your wits about you

Response from Beyond Academy

Hi Olivia,

Thank you so much for sharing your NYC experience! We’re really glad to hear your internship aligned well with your skills and interests.

We’re sorry that your accommodation experience didn’t meet expectations and brought your overall review score down. To make sure our interns feel supported throughout, we have multiple on-program check-ins in place so that feedback can be collected early and any concerns addressed as they arise. We would have loved to hear about these concerns while you were in the program, as our team would have worked with you to find a solution.

You’re absolutely right that New York can sometimes feel unsafe. Staying observant is key, and our community team is always available to offer advice and support whenever needed.

Thanks again for your thoughtful feedback. We're so glad that your professional and personal memories from the program continue to shine bright!

All the best,
The Beyond Academy Team

Helpful experience despite shortcomings

I found Beyond Academy to be a super helpful experience for both my social life and career. Through my internship, I have a better idea of what I want to do and decided on the industry I’d pursue. Additionally, I met many great, unique people that taught me a lot about ambition and work-life balance. However, the program was sloppy and unorganized at times. In the beginning, I was urged to pay a lot of money before I met with the instructor, which I didn’t feel comfortable with. While I got lucky with my internship, my friends got internships where they didn’t really do anything all day, and one of them had to go to an apartment for her office. I think putting in more effort to screen companies as well as trying to get better internships would go a long way. Despite the shortcomings, I want to stress that the program was a great learning opportunity, and I feel more ambitious and self-sufficient as a result.

What is your advice to future travelers on this program?
Since New York is such a vast city, I’d recommend to do as much exploring as you can before it’s over. Almost everyday, I did something I had never done before, like walking around different villages, visiting new parks, trying different cuisines, and shopping at thrift stores. If you’ve never lived by yourself before, it’s a huge step forward in independence and self-sufficiency, as you learn to enjoy time with yourself
Pros
  • Good social scene
  • Independence
  • Career growth
What other participants should know
  • Unorganized
  • Questionable companies
  • Expensive

Hi Zach,

Thank you so much for sharing your thoughtful review. We’re really glad to hear that your internship helped clarify your career goals and that you built meaningful friendships and connections along the way. It’s wonderful to see that you left the program feeling more ambitious and self-sufficient.

We’re sorry to hear that aspects of the program felt unorganized at times. To make sure interns feel supported throughout, we have structured feedback opportunities in place during the program. These check-ins are designed so our team can step in quickly if an internship placement isn’t meeting expectations. We always wish more interns made use of this support while on-program so we could address concerns in real time.

On payments, we do have a clear payment plan that is communicated to every intern at the start of their enrollment. We appreciate your note here, as it reminds us how important it is to ensure this process always feels transparent and comfortable.

Thank you again for your review, we’re so glad your overall experience in New York was both memorable and impactful.

All the best,
The Beyond Academy Team
