Students work in their Internship placements 20 hours per week and take three additional courses through London University (Birkbeck College).

Students are required, among other things, to complete a midterm and final essay, and participate in a Crossing Cultures Seminar in order to receive credit for the internship course. If requested by the London Internship Director, students have to complete a student learning contract. Students live independently in fully furnished flats, arranged by the program, located in North-Central London.
