CGF Internship Credit Application Process


Overview:

The process for registering for internship credit involves two steps. 

Graduate students, international students, or students needing credit overloads may have additional steps (below).


Step One: Internship Approval & Credit Application

The internship must be reviewed and approved by a CGF Internship Coordinator. Submit the following:

A. Internship Position Description: 

Must be official description from website or organization. Cannot be informally written by student. If you do not have a written position description, work with your supervisor to document responsibilities and expectations. Use the "Internship Position Description" link above for a template if needed. 

B. Internship Credit Application Form:

Complete this Google form to provide registration information,  internship organization details, supervisor contacts, and learning objectives. 


The CGF Internship Coordinator will review and respond within a week of submission. The student can choose to start by submitting only the Internship Position Description, if they want general approval before proceeding to the Internship Credit Application Form.

However, Step Two will not be started until both the Internship Description and Credit Application Form are received.


Step Two: University Internship Agreement (UIA)

After initial internship approval, the CGF Internship Coordinator will send the University Internship Agreement (UIA) to the student’s ASU email address by AdobeSign. This agreement will be signed by the student, the internship supervisor, and the CGF Internship Coordinator.

C. University Internship Agreement: Read the linked instructions carefully. Gather comprehensive internship information, including a letter of offer from the organization. Submit information as requested, then the agreement will go to the internship supervisor to sign.


When the signed agreement is received, the CGF Internship Coordinator will clear the student for CGF 484 or 584 and notify the student to register.

Submit Internship Position Description and ask any questions to: cgfinternships@asu.edu 

Possible Additional Steps

Request Credit Overload (if needed):

If registering in internship credit will put you over full time enrollment for the term, you must be cleared for a credit overload before you can register. Please look an your enrollment ahead of time and submit your request for a credit overload  (undergrads) to prevent delays in registration. Graduate students, contact your academic advisor.

Graduate Students:

Make sure your academic advisor is aware that you plan on registering for internship credit, that you understand what the credit will count for, and that your iPos is updated (if applicable). Some graduate students may need faculty approval.

International Students using CPT:

Understand the CPT process by reviewing the most updated information on the ISSC website: https://issc.asu.edu/f-1j-1-students/employment/f1-cpt

Students may not apply for CPT until the internship is approved and the student is enrolled in CGF internship credit which requires the steps above AND another agreement sent to the internship supervisor (SPA).

To ensure a smooth process, provide the following information to the CGF Internship Coordinator:
