Eligibility Requirements

The program is open to undergraduate students enrolled in SJSU Lucas College of Business.  Currently enrolled students and students who have graduated the May or December prior to the program are eligible to apply.

Requirements to apply:

• 3.5 overall SJSU GPA.
• Completion of most of the following upper division classes prior to departure: BUS 100W, BUS 130, BUS 140, BUS 160, BUS 170, and BUS 187. The more you have completed, the stronger your application.
• A valid passport extending at least through December 31 of the year of the summer internship.
• Non-US citizens must have a valid green card or visa that will allow re-entry to the US when returning from the program.
• Recommendation letter from SJSU faculty on your suitability for a company internship at an international location. The recommendation letter should be emailed by the instructor to [email protected]. 

DO NOT WAIT to get your passport and visa documents: Applicants must upload a valid passport with the required validity date during the application process in January. Students without this documentation during the application process will not be considered.  

In addition, a visa may be required to enter the country where your project is taking place. It is possible that visa requirements will prevent you from participating. This depends on where the project will be, where your passport is from and when we find out from Crown where the projects will be. We will help you apply for the appropriate visa if you are accepted into the program.

Participants are selected based on academic performance and qualifications for the specific projects. Customize your resume to highlight the skills and experience that make you the best choice for a particular project.
