• While any AQ student can complete in an internship for credit, some majors and minors require an internship for graduation. We recommend students consult with their academic advisor or referring to theirr academic plan
  
  
• Students can receive up to 12 academic credits for their internship experiences during their academic career
  
  
• The amount of credits requested will determine the number of hours you will need to complete during your internship. 1 credit = 45 hours
  
  
• Semester matters! Internships completed during the fall and spring will incur additional tuition fees if the requested credits will put you over 18 credit hours that semester; summer internships are subject to summer tuition rates

All students completing an internship for credit are required to participate in a seminar, which provides support, opportunities for reflection, a learning assessment, and ways to articulate your experience. Seminar meetings occur three times a semester and attendance is mandatory.

Midpoint Learning Assessment

During the semester, you will meet with your supervisor and the Internship Director in a Midpoint Learning Assessment to discuss your learning goals, strengths and opportunities for growth

Final Poster Session

Students will present their experiences at the Final Poster Session, to demonstrate the skills they鈥檝e learned and strengthened and practice telling their 鈥渋nternship story鈥�

Approval Process

After you submit the experience, the Advantage Center office will review it and begin the approval process. An email will be sent to each approver in sequential order and each approver has up to 4 days to either approve or decline the experience.

You can check the status of your internship approval through Handshake. Once logged in, click  Career Center > Experiences. Select your internship to view the details. This will show you who has and has yet to approve your internship. If you are waiting on an approval from a particular individual, you are encouraged to reach out to them.

Global students on F-1 visas interested in participating in an internship opportunity must do so for-credit and it must be directly related to their major area of study. The US government refers to this as Curricular Practical Training or CPT. An updated I-20 with CPT authorization is required to participate in any internship, so please reach out to the Office of International Programs to comply with visa regulations.
