   1. Your name and netID
   2. Your major
   3. The semester you want credit for
   4. The company you are interning with
   5. A 3-6 sentence description of what you will be doing for the internship AND how it is related to your major

Things to know:

• You will need 45 hours of experience per credit you enroll in.
• This is a credit/no credit class (formerly pass/fail), so it will not impact your GPA.
• You cannot receive retroactive credit for work you’ve already done. You can start counting hours only AFTER you enroll in credit.
• LFSCI 199R does not qualify for college internship travel grants.
