Cardinal Quarter Programs
Choose from 500+ opportunities to pursue a full-time, summer or quarter-long public service experience with Stanford support. Cardinal Quarter programs are offered through almost 30 campus partners at Stanford, offering a wide range of service experiences in everything from the arts to technology, philanthropy to international service. Fellowship stipends are provided to cover living and transportation expenses and are intended to ensure accessibility for all undergraduate students.
Cardinal Quarter offers opportunities that are prearranged (an internship at a community partner identified by the Stanford sponsoring unit) or self-designed (an unpaid public service internship identified by the applicant). The placement types are indicated below and on this flyer. Take a look at our Finding a Community Partner tipsheet if you are interested in identifying a host organization for a self-designed experience.
Most summer program application deadlines are in February.
