Who can apply?
- Capital One's dedicated program page describes the Early Internship Program as designed for second-year undergraduates. A separate current Capital One early-career article says the Analyst Early Internship looks for first-year students or sophomores pursuing a quantitative or STEM major.
- Capital One's Students & Grads page gives the current early-program window as a bachelor's degree earned between August 2029 and August 2030. Use that graduation window and the active posting—not class-year shorthand alone—to decide whether you qualify.
- The selected role controls authorization, degree, schedule, and any additional qualifications.
Do not rely on freshman or sophomore labels alone. Capital One's official pages use both second-year and first-year-or-sophomore language, so the live role and published graduation window control eligibility.
Dates, pay & program timing
The Analyst Early Internship runs for ten weeks during summer, from June through August. Capital One says it is paid, in person at its McLean office and includes corporate housing; no related jobs were visible on the dedicated program page at the October 26 review. The program covers business analysis with data and tools such as SQL, mentorship, and presenting findings to stakeholders.
