A six-month internship can strengthen your application, especially if you have limited work experience, as it shows practical skills and industry exposure. However, for some programs like MBAs that require post-graduation full-time work, internships may not meet their official criteria. Still, mentioning your internship, especially if related to your field, can definitely add value to your master's application.
