Has this changed recently? When I was in school, seemed like most internship opportunities I found were unpaid. There was some deal where it would count as college credit. Now don't try to tell me college credit counts as being paid

Yes, things changed in 2010, this is the best summary I could find of it: https://www.commlawcenter.com/2018/01/confused-paying-intern...
That said, the interpretation changed some in 2015 and again n 2018. Here is the Department of Labor's "test" on whether or not you can provide unpaid internships: https://www.dol.gov/agencies/whd/fact-sheets/71-flsa-interns...
That's federal, but some states have stricter laws.

The only way to have unpaid interns is if they are receiving college credits I believe.
> Unpaid internships are legal if the intern is the "primary beneficiary" of the arrangement. This is determined by the seven-point Primary Beneficiary Test.
