Please give me advice on ML PWM

I have a ML PWM internship setup for this fall, but my school is not wanting to give me credit for it. ML requires academic credit to be given for their internships, which seems to be the norm after searching WSO.

Is there any way around this? Has anyone ran into this problem before?

Don't you hate it when your school just doesn't care about it's students future career and potentially screwing them over? Why won't your school give you credit? Maybe you can try negotiating a small stipend or transportation costs covered. I'm not sure but usually the banks are structured and they require credit as compensation so they won't have to pay you and get away with it.

 

At my school they wouldn't give permission for credit based internship for freshman or sophomores. How fucked up is that?! That means all the would be IB kids would have a damn hard time securing internships before junior year recruiting. Luckily that has changed. You're gonna have to somehow plead with the school or with ML. Can a professor sponsor you for this or something?

 

Ask your counselor. There are ways around this. A common way is that they make your internship a 1-credit course after you sign some papers.
