After reviewing this information, follow the instructions provided to apply for the course of your choosing. Some, but not all, courses require the completion of this application. 
 
Only apply for ONE internship course.  Applying to more than one course can delay the processing of your application. You can apply for the course before your SOLAR registration date. There is no formal deadline for applying to the courses; We will continue to accept applications until the courses are full. We will grant enrollment to courses on a first-come-first-serve basis for students who are eligible and will begin reviewing applications towards the end of the Fall 2024 semester. 
 
Once you have submitted your application, follow the steps provided on the CJS department website. For most courses this will be waiting for an email from the course instructor. In other cases, it is your responsibility to take the next step.
