Is it possible to earn course credit for an internship or other off-campus work?
Yes, a student can earn credit for internship experiences through Education in the Field with support from a faculty sponsor and permission from the department in which the credit will be posted. However, not all departments sponsor them. Up to 2.00 credits per semester may be earned through Education in the Field in conjunction with other course credits during the semester. Education-in-the-Field credit also can be earned during the summer or while on a leave of absence. However, a fee (10% of the tuition rate) is charged for each credit earned and posted when the student is not enrolled in the University (during the summer or when a student is on a leave of absence). A combined total of no more than 4.00 credits earned from Independent Study and Education in the Field can count toward the 32.00 credits required for graduation. Applications for Education in the Field are available from the Deans Office and at www.wesleyan.edu/deans/forms.html.
