Comment: Note about UEX course being taken by MSIS students

...

Two options cover most situations: If CPT related to their Capstone project then students can use their enrollment in the Capstone course to cover their CPT.  Check that they are enrolled in a Capstone section and enter the course number and name (usually INF 388L Professional Experience and Project, but sometimes the School Library Practicum.) 

The second option is the most frequent, which is to use the INF 188T Internship course via UEX.  The UEX version of INF 188T is offered through UEX but our MSIS students take that course (because it is less expensive for them). Unless students are seeking to graduate at the end of Summer, they should always use an enrollment in the following Fall to cover a summer CPT (allows longer CPT period, avoiding complicated extensions etc). INF 288T and INF 388T are available through the iSchool (not UEX) only for the exceedingly rare situations in which students need to make up a full-time enrollment (rare because not needed in last semester and internship courses don't count towards graduation, so three regular courses plus INF 188T is the usual approach).

If INF 188T via UEX the Graduate Advisor has to tell UEX that the student can enroll by adding the student EID to this file, which is shared with UEX administrators: https://utexas.app.box.com/notes/599379289175 The iSchool has a Memorandum of Understanding with UEX that specifies process and costs, Assistant Dean knows the details, a draft linked below.
