2026 General Motors Student Corps orientation. Each year 8 students and 2 alternates go through a rigorous selection process to be a part of an 8 week summer internship. The students are paid $18/hr to work on campus improvement projects, acquire soft skills to excel in their careers, experience college life, and skilled trades. It is an awesome experience! This opportunity is brought to you by GM in partnership with the SWA Thrive Up Community Education Team.
