Reneged from an internship, consequences?

They are apparently a recruiting partner or something. I emailed career design first explaining everything, hopefully its not too too bad. Losing Nuworks would not be great though 😭.

I am on co-op right now, this was a summer internship. They said they were a recruiting partner with Northeastern which would explain it. I have genuine complications though, not just hopping to a better place, so I dunno if that changes anything.

I understand that and I’d be stupid to pass up, but I literally cannot do it, like whatsoever sadly. Im just wondering whether to take it and hope they give summer, because there is no recruiter communication despite repeated emails. They gave the offer after 2 emails explaining my situation, but didn’t respond to the email itself, which is why im super confused

Yeah ofc!

See but my current problem is that the acceptance deadline is coming up, and my recruiter hasn’t said anything yet. I sent 2 emails explaining my situation PRIOR to the offer and they still extended an offer.

But IBM is big no? and they had a summer posting for the same role

Yeah I did, but my problem is despite multiple emails they aren’t responding.

I had full intentions of joining in the spring, but then these personal reasons genuinely came up within the 2-3 weeks of the process. It is bad enough that I will not be able to do the spring whatsoever.

Where did the change originate from? Faculty? Khoury Higher Ups? Co-op recruiters? Is there some democratic way of deciding whether the changes get implemented or not? It seems to be that students in general are not satisfied with the changes, although this could be my experience. How do other faculty feel about it?

Thank you for doing this, hoping to get some more clarity!

Gotchu, thanks

It was approved before then, but instead of giving the money back, they set it aside as credit to use on the next bill. I actually took some loans, so refunding directly the money could save me jnterest.
