Advocacy Internship Program
The Arizona Students’ Association’s Internship Program was established to provide students with an opportunity to work and learn in a hands-on environment. The Advocacy Internship Program is a semester-long internship program in which students will work on developing skills in the areas of lobbying, grassroots organizing, media and messaging, campaign and event planning. Interns will further develop their skills in the areas of public speaking, general leadership development, political astuteness, writing and public relations.
This program is offered at Northern Arizona University as well as Arizona State University and the University of Arizona. Interns will meet on several occasions to participate in state-wide trainings as well as lobbying at the Capital. The interns will also participate in the Lobby Corps and will have access to incredible networking opportunities, community involvement and will be equipped with the knowledge and tools for success in any career that they choose. If you are interested in joining ASA's Lobby Corps please email asaatnau@gmail.com.

Southwest Student Leadership Conference
Each fall ASA holds the Southwest Student Leadership Conference at ASU Tempe to bring together students from across the region to attend workshops on some of the most important issues of the day, build our advocacy skills, and network and learn from other student government and student group leaders from the southwest.
Tuition
Each year the leadership of ASA proposes a student alternative to tuition. The leadership plays a key role in working with the university adminstration in developing an affordable, accessible, and predictable tuition plan. In prior years ASA was able to save each student $87 dollars in tuition money by advocating for a more student friendly tuition plan.
