Elective Internships: Application Form

Use this form to register for internships for academic credit, as well as summer (no-credit) internships. This form replaces the previous PDF version of the application.

Students looking to receive elective credit for an internship may register for CCAS 2154: Elective Internship.

Note: If you register for CCAS 2154 in the fall or spring semester, the fee is included in your tuition (up to 18 credit hours). However when you register for CCAS 2154 in the summer for 1-3 credits, you have to pay per credit hour, as determined by the university. There is a small fee (approximately $35-$50) for those registering for zero credits over the summer.

The completed application is due by the end of the fourth week of classes. For Summer 2025, applications must be submitted and all approvals received no later than Wednesday, June 11 at 11:59 p.m (Eastern time).
