Visa
International Internships LLC will make every attempt to advise you of the process required for securing your visa but we do not know the process for citizens of every country. You are ultimately responsible for making sure you get the proper visa to enter the host country to partake in the program. We make no guarantee regarding the timeliness of visa issuance or your entry clearance nor are we responsible for any problems arising at Immigration Control whether prior to or upon arrival in the host country due to citizenship or visa status. You are encouraged to purchase refundable/changeable airline tickets or travel insurance if you think there may be any issue or delay in getting your visa. European Union citizens applying for an internship in the E.U. will not have to secure an entry visa for their program. Non-U.S. citizens are eligible to participate in any program but may have additional visa issues to contend with depending on their country of origin/ citizenship. Please note that our refund policies are the same if you are denied a visa and have to withdraw from the program. Any attempt to use our program or documentation provided to you to illegally enter another country will be met with harsh consequences and immediate notification of the appropriate authorities.
US Applicants & International Studies Obtaining a 4-year Degree from a US Institution
