Hello !
Ok, so I earned a sub par gpa my first semester in college so I just assumed I would not get any summer internship this summer so I found a study abroad program with my school that would let me get ahead in my course work. But it seemed like their is a possibility that some people from one of my engineering classes will be hired for internships this summer. For one of our class projects, my group took our idea and competed it in inventing competitions with our teacher as our "supervisor". Long story short, our teacher says that some of us may be offered internships at a company that's had its eye on our team this whole year for this summer.
BUT I was hoping to study abroad this summer . The trip goes from late June to early August and my school is paying for virtually all of it so it feels like a once and a life time chance. I have until April 13th to decide if I'm going abroad or not and I am torn between if I should take the experience or the trip abroad.
I am open to suggestions or advice. I could use some advice. We won't know who is getting an offer until our final competition (April 27th) but they plan on taking at least one of us (confirmed) .
Summer internship or Study Abroad Program ?
PS - I know its dumb, but is it possibly an option that if I were accepted to ask to work from may till I leave at the end of june? (I'm a freshman and I don't know if this is a thing)
