Obviously now is not an ideal time to apply for internships but I just recently got serious about finishing college have amassed these credits in February and March. I start classes may 8th at UMPI for supply chain management. When they request transcripts and there is no UMPI classes on it yet (assuming the process moves that fast) surely that will seriously impact a decision right ? I had a low GPA in community college but averaged across Sophia, study, and CC I have 3.16 which academically wouldn’t matter as they’re P/F credits. But can I put it on an application? I know my gpa previously is wiped and whatever grades I get at UMPI will appear as my GPA. Should I just finish that with the best grades I can get and forgo the idea of getting an internship right now given my circumstanceAre you telling me I need permission from the university to participate in an internship? I have had opportunities extended to me from local connections for a buyer role in a small aerospace manufacturing company and another learning warehouse operations. Worse comes to worse I’ll just do one of those. But I also have family in Orlando and Chicago I can stay with and have applied to internships there. I’ve identified an internship for a buyer agent for luxury home builder in Orlando. I have my real estate agent and appraiser license and I feel a lot of the skills I learned would transfer to that role and provide a lot of value. I’ve applied for numerous other internships I hope I haven’t been tailoring my resume several times and creating cover letters for the university to tell me I can’t do an internship.
Your previous grades aren't wiped. Neither is your GPA. Do you have a plan on how to get an internship? I haven't seen them available to YourPace students. I inquired about them, but was told we couldn't do one. Wondering if that has since changed.
