There are limits.
You can receive up to 1 internship offer and 2 full-time (FTE) offers. Only one summer internship PPO is available; it counts toward the FTE limit, not the internship limit.

02 · THE POLICY, SIMPLIFIED
Three things to remember.
Keep these in mind as offers come your way.
Accept an FTE? Your FTE pool closes.
Accepting an FTE ends your eligibility for more FTE offers. If your internship offer is still unused, you may still sit for an internship-only offer.
↳ After your second FTE offer, you leave the FTE pool either way.
Know what can come next.
Tiers apply only to FTE offers; T1 is highest. While in the FTE pool, you can pursue higher-tier FTE offers. An unused internship offer may still be available. A combined offer needs a higher FTE tier and an unused internship.
T3→T2→T1 highest
03 · PUT IT INTO PRACTICE
Eight common scenarios.
Each example is a separate situation. Here’s how the rules work in practice.
EXAMPLE 01
T2 FTE + INTERNSHIPInternship + FTE
→
YOU REJECTthe FTE offer
↗
Remaining quota: 1 FTE offer; no internship offer. Your only next offer can be FTE-only in T1. That would be your second FTE offer and close your FTE pool.
EXAMPLE 02
T1 FTE OFFERFTE only
→
YOU REJECTno higher tier
↗
Remaining quota: 1 FTE offer and 1 internship offer. There is no higher FTE tier, so only an internship-only offer is eligible. The unused FTE slot cannot be used at T1 again.
EXAMPLE 03
INTERNSHIP OFFERNo tier attached
→
YOU HAVEno FTE offer yet
↗
Remaining quota: 2 FTE offers; no internship offers. With no FTE offer yet, you can pursue FTE-only offers in T1, T2, or T3. Any PPO counts as one of those FTE offers.
EXAMPLE 04
FIRST FTE OFFERT2 · FTE only
→
YOU REJECTthe offer
↗
Remaining quota: 1 FTE offer and 1 internship offer. Choose one next step: T1 FTE-only; internship-only (leaving the FTE slot for a later T1 offer); or T1 FTE + internship (using both remaining offers).
EXAMPLE 05 · SUMMER PPO
SUMMER INTERNSHIP PPOT2 FTE · first FTE
→
YOU REJECTthe PPO
↗
Remaining quota: 1 FTE offer and 1 internship offer. The single PPO counts as FTE offer 1, not an internship offer. Choose T1 FTE-only; internship-only (leaving the FTE slot for later); or T1 FTE + internship (using both remaining offers).
EXAMPLE 06 · AFTER A PPO
SECOND FTE OFFEREligible higher-tier · FTE only
→
FROM ANOTHER EMPLOYERaccept or reject
↗
After rejecting a T2 summer internship PPO as your first FTE offer, one eligible higher-tier FTE-only offer may follow. That uses FTE offer 2 of 2, so you leave the FTE pool either way. Your internship offer remains available if you have not received one.
EXAMPLE 07 · SUMMER PPO
SUMMER INTERNSHIP PPOfirst FTE · T2
→
YOU ACCEPTthe FTE offer
↗
The PPO uses 1 of 2 FTE offers and does not use the internship offer. Accepting it closes your FTE pool, but you can still sit for one internship-only offer if you have not received one.
EXAMPLE 08
FIRST FTE OFFERT3 · FTE only
→
YOU REJECTthe offer
↗
Remaining quota: 1 FTE offer and 1 internship offer. Choose one eligible path:
- T1/T2 FTE-only: uses the second FTE offer. Your FTE pool closes; internship-only may remain.
- T1/T2 FTE + internship: uses both remaining offers. No internship offer remains.
- Internship-only: uses the internship offer; the higher-tier FTE offer may still follow.
04 · THE FULL POLICY
Placement policy, in plain language.
A complete reference for offer types, limits, decisions, and what you may sit for next.
01
Offers and tiers
An offer can be internship-only, FTE-only, or internship + FTE. Tiers apply only to the FTE part: T1 is highest, followed by T2 and T3. An internship offer has no tier.
02
Offer limits
You may receive at most one internship offer and two FTE offers. A combined offer counts as one offer of each type. Only one summer internship PPO is available; it counts as an FTE offer, not an internship offer.
03
Accepting or rejecting an FTE
Accepting any FTE offer closes your FTE candidate pool. If the internship offer is still unused, you may still sit for an internship-only offer. To remain eligible for a second FTE offer, reject the first. Once a second FTE offer arrives, your FTE pool closes whether you accept or reject it; an unused internship offer may remain available.
04
What you may sit for next
Receiving an offer uses the type or types included in it, whether or not you accept the FTE. An internship offer can be used once and has no tier. If you reject your first FTE and remain in the FTE pool, you may pursue FTE offers at a higher tier. If your internship opportunity is unused, you may also pursue an internship-only offer. A combined offer is eligible when it includes a higher-tier FTE and your internship opportunity is unused. Treat these as alternative next offers and recount the remaining quotas after each one: the second FTE offer closes the FTE pool regardless of your decision, while an unused internship-only offer may still be available.
