When Do Summer Internships Start?

I am planning a trip with my friends for next may currently, but I don't want it to conflict with any summer internships if I get them. Do most internships start in June, or should I think twice about this trip?

Most start early June (June 7th this year). There were also several analysts that came a week later because their school system runs on quarters ( Stanford, UofC,).

"Greed, in all of its forms; greed for life, for money, for love, for knowledge has marked the upward surge of mankind. And greed, you mark my words, will not only save Teldar Paper, but that other malfunctioning corporation called the USA."

If you start 1/2 week late then you would miss half of training / orientation so unless you have school or some other serious conflict is generally not allowed.

But when do they generally start? And is school a valid excuse? Are they likely to accept that?
