Students enrolled in AIP are expected to begin their internships at the start of the quarter, and be able to fulfill all required hours based on the number of units elected. It is necessary to plan accordingly, and in some cases submit the required paperwork in advance of AIP’s final deadlines.

Timing Considerations
It is necessary to plan accordingly and start early, as AIP will not approve opportunities that do not align with the quarter timeline. Common circumstances that may delay your AIP enrollment include:
- Student Developed Internships: It takes approximately one week for AIP to review internships not currently in the AIP database. Approval may be delayed if we have difficulty reaching the internship site and/or it is unclear whether the opportunity meets our Internship Guidelines.
- Work Authorization (Curricular Practical Training (CPT) or Academic Training): Some international students are required to request CPT or Academic Training, which must be approved prior to beginning an internship. These requests are submitted after students have completed the entire AIP enrollment process, and can take about 2 weeks to process. Students requiring CPT or Academic Training should plan accordingly, and submit Learning Agreements and enrollment requests in advance of AIP’s deadlines.
- Background Checks: Some organizations require background checks that take several days, or in some cases, weeks. Plan accordingly and apply early so you can begin the internship on-time.
- Human Resources paperwork, specialized training, etc.: As with background checks, some organizations have onboarding paperwork and/or other requirements before students can begin an internship. Apply early to account for such procedures.
