Offer Policy

The following is the Career and Professional Development Center’s policy regarding employer deadlines for job or internship offers. If you have any questions, or if you have received an offer deadline that does not appear to conform to this policy, contact your career consultant as soon as possible.

Fall Interviews:

Employers conducting interviews in the fall semester must give students until the first business day of December to respond to an offer, without pressure to respond on an earlier date. Students interviewing on or after the first business day of December should be given three weeks to respond to an offer.

Spring Interviews:

Employers conducting interviews in the spring semester must give students three weeks to respond to an offer, without pressure to respond on an earlier date.

Full-time Offers to Summer Interns:

Employers who give an offer for full-time employment to a student who has had a summer internship with the employer must give students until the first business day of November to respond to an offer, without pressure to respond on an earlier date.

PLEASE NOTE:
In all cases, employers must give students at least 3 weeks to make a decision.
