How much does an intern get paid?

An intern gets paid $15 an hour on average. Most interns make somewhere from $11 to $17 per hour. Internships are not often high-paying, and are more focused on learning skills necessary that prepare you for a position in whichever field you are interning.

There are some internships that are unpaid internships, where there is no salary given. In some cases, these have a small stipend for housing, but this is not common, and internships are mostly completely unpaid and focus solely on skills gained.
