Over 50 federal agencies participate in the program, including, but not limited to:
- Health and Human Services
- Indian Health Service
- Food and Drug Administration
- U.S. Department of Agriculture
- U.S. Department of Education
- Bureau of Indian Affairs

Eligible applicants are U.S. citizens who are enrolled as students in a full-time or part-time degree or certificate program, whether taking classes in-person, online, in the U.S. or abroad. Participants may be undergraduate, graduate, or PhD candidates.
Internships are unpaid. Educational institutions may be willing to offer course credit for Virtual Student Service. The number of available positions varies each year and depends on the needs of individual agencies.
