During the 1980’s I worked for the World Bank (Latin American Division) during summers and winter breaks when I was in college. Does the Bank still offer such a summer internship or must you now have a college degree? Thank you. Dianne Mead
@Dianne: It depends on your location, for more information on The World Bank Summer Internship : Visit the World Bank Website : http://www.worldbank.org. All the Best.

Dear World Bank Internship Program:
Re: my timely submitted Summer 2013 application.
If at all possible, I would like to have an idea when selections for coming internships will be made. This would be most relevant for me to arrange a series of housing, university and financial personal matters, in case I am selected.
Thank you very much and kind regards,
