If this is not an option, students may also purchase a low-cost insurance plan through the University or through the private sector before they intern. Some academic departments will grant credit for internship experiences. If you are interested in receiving academic credit, please make an appointment with your Department Internship Coordinator. If you are granted academic credit for your experience, your program advisor will inform you of any additional requirements you will need to meet in order to receive credit. The student must initiate the request through the appropriate channels prior to accepting an internship offer.
Tuition is charged for all credit.
