During his summer internship with a New Jersey congressman, Matthew Schaller will work eight hours a day, three days a week. He will not be paid. He is paying $3,100. That’s the cost of a three-credit summer course at Seton Hall University, where Schaller will get credit for his work. He is a diplomacy major, and the degree program requires an academic internship.
