Who can apply?

  • Delta describes student internships and multi-semester co-ops, but the current role sets the minimum college year, degree, and schedule.
  • The majority of student opportunities are based in Atlanta, while the opening controls location and work arrangement.
  • Delta says all students and graduates in its programs are compensated; housing stipends are available to out-of-state students for each semester worked.
Easy to miss

A travel benefit or housing stipend is not a substitute for checking the selected role's written compensation, schedule, and location terms.

Our editorial advice · not employer requirements

How to prepare a stronger application

Connect your evidence to the airline function—operations, customer experience, pricing, finance, engineering, communications, supply chain, sustainability, or technology.

If relocating, compare the written housing stipend with deposits and actual Atlanta-area costs before deciding.
