CPD staff members are only able to offer general guidance. It is the student's responsibility to determine which forms need to be completed before they go on their internship*. We suggest that students first reach out to their graduate program coordinator to seek guidance on the which forms they will need to complete before the internship begins. Students may also schedule a career counseling appointment with an OCPD career counselor.
Guidance for GSICE students pursuing an experiential opportunity (such as a full- or part-time internship, consulting workshop, etc.):
- Before you apply for an internship: You may wish to schedule a career counseling appointment to discuss your application materials. It is very important that international students consult with an advisor in the International Students and Scholars Office to determine their specific situation with regards to pursing an internship.
- When you have an internship offer: Students and postdocs who have received an internship offer may need to complete and electronically submit some or all the below forms.
- After your internship: You may wish to schedule a career counseling appointment to reflect on your internship and decide on next steps for your career.
