Internship Policy

To qualify for a graduate internship appointment, the graduate student must have a minimum of twelve IUP graduate credits earned and a minimum 3.0 grade point average, and must meet departmental internship criteria.

No more than six internship credits may apply to a graduate degree unless written approval of the student’s department chair or graduate coordinator and the dean of the School of Graduate Studies and Research (in that order) is obtained. Continuation in an internship experience by a given graduate student is contingent upon the student’s maintenance of satisfactory performance in all aspects of his/her degree program. Programmatic exceptions to the foregoing policy can be made only with the approval of the Graduate Committee.
