Hack University Worldwide Initiative · Get involved
The Student Ambassador Intern program is a volunteer role built to grow your leadership, networking, and professional readiness. It is open to students, new grads, and working professionals worldwide, asks 3 to 5 hours a week, runs hybrid or fully remote, and ends with a Certificate of Completion.
The program
Nothing here is filler work. Each thing an intern does is a structured learning experience — not a substitute for paid work. The organization runs entirely on volunteers, with no paid staff.
Facilitate sessions, help onboard your peers, and own event-day coordination end to end.
Connect across our host and affiliated orgs, industry partners, and the wider tech community.
Complete a course, turn its projects into portfolio pieces, and publish what you learn along the way. Communication, documentation, and self-management come with the work.
How it runs
Roughly an hour, video or manual, followed by a short quiz so we know you are set up.
Your milestones are mapped to the three pillars, so progress is visible instead of vague.
Finish the term and receive a verified certificate you can add to LinkedIn.
The commitment
This is a volunteer role. Read this part before you apply — it is the honest scope, and the meeting cadence is the piece people most often underestimate.
Apply
Use your Google account to submit your application. Keep using that same account throughout — it is how your application and your access get approved together.
Open the OneStop PortalPick the one org you want as your main — the one you will primarily work with — and message it on LinkedIn to confirm your application. Whichever you pick, you support the whole tech community as secondary.

Not the right fit?
Note. This is an unpaid volunteer role — an educational internship for a fixed term, with no guarantee of future employment. Selected interns sign a Student Ambassador Intern Agreement before starting.
Use the same Google account for the portal, the onboarding module, and your certificate so everything stays linked to one record.
Where we can operate. The ecosystem is based in the United States, so participation follows U.S. Treasury sanctions rules administered by OFAC. Those rules change, and the government's own source is the only one that is always current, so we do not keep a country list of our own. Check it yourself before you apply:
We welcome applicants worldwide. Where a comprehensive embargo applies, we are not permitted to onboard you.
What you are responsible for. Confirming that you are eligible to take part is yours to do. That includes any rules that apply where you live and, if you hold a visa or a study permit, checking with your school or designated school official before you accept a role — we cannot advise you on your immigration status.
Your confirmation. By submitting an application you confirm that you have read this disclosure, that you have checked your own eligibility, and that taking part does not breach any law or restriction that applies to you — sanctions, export control, immigration, school, or employer rules. We rely on that confirmation and accept it in good faith.
If it is not accurate. If your confirmation turns out to be untrue or incomplete, we may end your participation at once. Responsibility for the consequences of the inaccuracy is yours, not ours.
If the terms do not work for you. Everything above is a condition of taking part, not a negotiation. If any of it does not suit you — the hours, the meeting schedule, the unpaid basis, the eligibility rules — then do not apply. Deciding the program is not for you is yours to make, and it costs you nothing.
Acknowledgement and release. Taking part is voluntary. To the fullest extent permitted by the law that applies to you, you take part at your own risk and release Code Crunch Worldwide, Hack University, the affiliated orgs, and their organizers and volunteers from claims for loss, injury, or damage arising out of your participation. Nothing here excludes liability that cannot lawfully be excluded, and nothing here takes away a right you are not permitted to waive.
If you are selected, the Student Ambassador Intern Agreement you sign — not this page — is the governing document.
