Eligibility
Are you interested in going abroad for an international placement year? We, the International Talent Team, approve placements and you may meet the eligibility requirements if you:
- have successfully completed your stage of study
- have no outstanding fees or fines from Coventry University
- do not have any planned resits for examinations
- are enrolled as a student at Coventry University.
If you don’t meet these, don’t worry. We may ask you to take a gap year, or move onto your next stage of study once you have enrolled with us.
Timeline
You can submit your placement application via InPlace from Monday 16 November 2020. The deadline for applications is Friday 27 August 2021, 11:59am.
We recommend you submit your application ahead of the deadline to allow us time to review it.
How to apply
Email us at the International Talent Team at to tell us you have secured a placement. Please provide us with as much detail as possible, including the name of the company, the proposed dates of your internship and any other information you think may be useful.
You’ll then need to complete an application form via InPlace including the self-placement assessment part, which your academic tutor or course director must sign off. Please complete this form correctly and with as much information as possible, as we can reject your application if it doesn’t have the information we need.
Once you have submitted your application to us, we will confirm whether you have given us the information we need. We will send two emails:
- one to you, containing further documents that you will need to complete and return to us as part of your application
- one to the placement employer, with documents they are required to complete and return to us.
We will consider your application once we have received all of the information.
