I will stay in my host country after my internship or Study Abroad Program ends. Will this time count towards the 26 weeks of International Experience?
No, days overseas before and after official start dates of international experience do not count toward your IP program.
Do holidays that take place within the official period of the International Experience count toward the IP?
Yes, standard holidays that take place while you are involved in the International Plan do count toward your International Experience.
I am visiting the U.S. for school; can I study in my country of origin and receive credit for the International Plan?
No, students whose normal residence is outside the U.S. may not complete the International Experience in that country unless granted an exception by the IPC. In such cases, the proposed International Experience should clearly demonstrate how it will contribute to achievement of the International Plan objectives.
Can I incorporate classes or orientations I will be involved with in terms of my IP toward my overall International Experience?
Yes, structured experience relevant to the international experience that occur before or after the official start date/end date must be approved in writing by the appropriate academic unit.
Can AP credit from high school courses count as one of the three core courses?
No, only courses taken after high school can count toward your core classes.
Can international experience obtained before arriving at Georgia Tech count toward the International Plan?
No, the IP courses and experience is only fulfilled at Georgia Tech.
