  4. MECOP is a well-regarded, well-funded internship program. A full year of internships goes a long way toward ‘experience.’ Internships are well paid. You do not select the companies; the companies select you. MECOP adds to your time in school (at least six months). Must have at least one term in school after second internship. Carefully(!!) schedule your course work around MECOP. Since MECOP is a paid internship, carefully(!!) consider financial consequences; e.g., financial aid issues. !!! Consult with your parents/guardians and COB advisors !!! MECOP – Things to Consider
