Bocconi Exchange or Internship
I am entering my second year of BIEM and trying to decide whether to prepare for exchange or take a curricular internship. I have an internship next summer in France, but I am a US citizen to managing my visas and permesso is quite complicated. To renew my passport, keep my permesso valid and get 2 visas would be hard to do but not impossible.
I would not be opposed to exchange as I would be able to convert up to 5 courses, however an internship would be more convenient. That being said, an internship allows for only 6 credits and I would still be responsible for my first semester classes. That would force me to take several generals in the second semester which is inconvenient for graduation. I suppose I could do neither; just focus on my summer internship and return normally in 3rd year but I am concerned I would not be making the most of Bocconi.
