APPROVAL PROCESS

How early should I apply for my internship?

For internships with a business that has an active affiliation agreement:
Apply by: For an internship during:
Nov. 28 Spring semester
April 15 Summer semester
April 15 Fall semester
For internships with a business that does not have an active affiliation agreement:
Oct. 15 Spring semester
March 13 Summer semester
March 13 Fall semester

Two students study paperwork

If there is an affiliation agreement in place, you might receive approval in 1 to 4 weeks. Remember, it can take between 8 to 12 weeks for some affiliation agreements to be signed and, in some cases, the employer refuses to sign.  It is your responsibility to take the necessary application steps in a timely manner.

What happens if I’ve applied too late?

Unfortunately, you may not have an internship opportunity that semester. Immediately consult your academic advisor to make alternate arrangements. You may also apply to take an internship during another semester.
