Dear all,

UTSA’s Citymester program is an exciting 9 SCH combination of internship, service learning, and coursework on San Antonio’s civic landscape. In Summer 2021, up to 30 students will be virtually immersed in our vibrant city with scholarships up to $3,000. Details are attached and you can read a 2019 Sombrilla story on Citymester here.

Note, while the Honors College manages the Citymester program, students do not need to be Honors students to participate. Students only need to be current degree-seeking UTSA undergraduates with a GPA of 3.25 or higher.

The most common question is, will the Citymester courses count toward my degree? It depends on the degree, but often, the internship course can all under the major’s internship course (if present) and the service learning course and San Antonio seminar can count toward free electives in certain majors. The Citymester program manager, Ms. Elisa Perkins Cuellar (citymester@utsa.edu) works with each student and their advisor to determine the best path.

Please share widely with students. Questions? Contact citymester@utsa.edu.

Thank you,

Jill Fleuriet
