CAS IN 399 – Application

Now accepting applications for Summer 2025! All submissions from students with off-campus internship offers will be reviewed on a rolling basis, until the course is full. Interested students are encouraged to apply as soon as an internship offer is secured. International students must apply in time to have their CPT request approved before the start of Summer Term 2025. (CPT requests take approximately 10 business days to review.) No students will be admitted to IN 399 after Summer Term begins on May 20, 2025.  

Before beginning this application, be sure to review the eligibility requirements and other important information detailed on the CAS IN 399 page. Note that all applicants are required to attend an IN 399 Information Session prior to submitting an application. (If you were unable to attend a session, please email casel@bu.edu to request an alternative way to fulfill this requirement.)

International students will need to demonstrate appropriate authorizations before beginning the internship.
