Signing/Relocation Bonus for SA?

How common is it for a bank to give a signing bonus or relocation bonus to summer analysts? I plan to be interning in a different city next summer at a MM investment bank and am wondering if I should be expecting this type of bonus.

If so, does this appear in the offer letter usually?

Thanks in advance
