The University of Dreams is an internship placement program that has programs in cities around the world, including San Francisco. All internships include room & board, transportation to and from work, weekly seminars, and weekend activities – it’s a great program! I was placed in Los Angeles and had an amazing summer. All internships are guaranteed, so you’re sure to have a good experience. If you decide to apply, use the reference code OU_CM on the application to receive a rushed acceptance decision since you heard from an alumni.

I have an interest in Real Estate Appraisal and Community Development, and wanted to know how I can find an internship or some entry level position in the field. Have any ideas?
I am currently finishing up a BS in Political Science with a minor in Urban and Regional Analysis and Pan-African Studies. I don’t know if that helps or not. Thanks.

Check the employment opportunities listings for all public entities in your area: city, county, state, sewer district, water district, school district etc. They sometimes have entry level positions, but they also list the employment qualifications. If you don’t have them, then at least you now have a check list for what is needed.
Get catalogs for your local Adult Education and Community College. See what related courses are offered. Sign up for a basic course. You have to start somewhere.
Are appraisers licensed in your state? If so, check with the licensing agency about educational and experience requirements.
Make a list and start to build your experience, education, and overall knowledge of what it takes to be successful in the field.
Good luck.
