Internship Approval

The process of finding an internship and getting it approved by a faculty internship coordinator.

I-Plan Internship Registration Process

Step 1: Student – Getting Started

Find an Internship:

  • Choose a position related to your major.
  • You can find internships using Handshake or you can request a past internship list from the Career Center.

Complete the Internship Approval Form on I-Plan:

  • Log in using your church login.
  • Click “Internship Approval.”
  • Select “Create an Internship Request.”
  • Fill out all required fields and click Submit at the bottom.

After submitting:

  • Your request goes to your Faculty Internship Coordinator for review.
  • If you’re an on-campus internation student, it will also be sent to the International Office.
  • An email is sent to your Experience Provider asking them to accept the Master Internship Agreement.
  • You can track your approval status anytime by accessing your application on I-Plan.

Step 2: Faculty Internship Coordinator – Academic Approval

  • Reviews your request and may ask for more details about your internship.
  • Approves your internship through I-Plan.
  • You will get an email letting you know when they have approved it.
  • It can take up to 2 weeks for them to approve it, so plan ahead.

Step 3: Experience Provider – Employer Approval

  • Reviews and accept the BYU-Idaho Master Agreement.
  • If they have hosted BYU-Idaho interns in the past 3 years, they will not be required to do sign it again.

Step 4: International Office (If Applicable)

  • For on-campus international students only.
  • Reviews your internship and may contact you for additional information.
  • Make sure that you have a job offer letter attached to the application and that the internship dates on the letter match the dates you put on the application.

Step 5: Student – Final Step

  • Once you receive all approval emails and your application say “Authorized,” go to your student portal, and register for the internship course. 

If you have any questions about internships, issues with filling out the application, or need help making changes to the application, please reach out to internships@byui.edu or call 208-496-9801.
