I will be entering my junior year of college next year, and I would like to find an internship for next summer in public accounting. This summer I am working as a staff temp in the accounts receivable department of a non-profit educational institution to gain experience. My gpa is a 3.8, and so far I've had four accounting courses, so I think I can get an internship. When would be the best time to start looking for internships for next summer? Should I contact the firms or use monstertrak.com, collegecentral.com, etc.? Do the internships usually offer credit?

Thanks,

J. Armstrong
