REGISTRATION PROCEDURE FOR INTERNSHIPS

of the internship experience or course. Billing and payments are to be handled through the Bursar’s Office, and;

ship experience, and;

internship, which includes making financial arrangements for payment of appropriate fees.

following registration procedure:

a minimum of 9 semester hours and in the subsequent Fall Semester for 15 semester hours, *
OR;
(b) If the Internship commences in January ending in June, the student must register in the Spring Semester for 15
semester hours and in the subsequent summer session for a minimum of 9 semester hours*.
