To help students better acquire practical knowledge, Indiana Wesleyan University allows international graduate students to apply for CPT for internships related to their field of study starting from their first semester, in accordance with the regulations set by the United States Citizenship and Immigration Services (USCIS). This policy is designed to provide students with the opportunity to gain hands-on experience in their chosen profession, enhancing their educational journey and preparing them for future career opportunities. The CPT program is an integral part of the curriculum, enabling students to integrate classroom learning with real-world work experience.
