Guide To International Internships

 

You may consider participating in an international internship opportunity if:

  • Your GPA is 3.25 or higher

  • You meet eligibility requirements

First, ask yourself a few questions:

  • Is your primary objective gaining valuable experience working in another country?

  • What kind of skills do you want to develop?

  • What time of year is best for you?
