Tips for Completing the DS-7002 Training/Internship Placement Plan

We are providing the information below to assist University at Buffalo Academic Departments in completing the DS-7002 Training/Internship Placement Plan.

Completing the DS-7002

A complete and correct Form DS-7002 is required before a DS-2019 can be issued. Therefore, if any fields are blank or incomplete, we cannot proceed with your request for a DS-2019. Instead, we will request the missing or incorrect information.

Form DS-7002 includes places for three signatures:

  • The Student Intern must sign on page 1.
  • The Responsible Officer / Alternate Responsible Officer must sign on page 2 (an ISS representative will sign this section).
  • The student’s supervisor must sign on page 4.
  • Upon submission to ISS, your DS-7002 must include the student’s signature and the supervisor’s signature.

Once complete, please email the DS-7002 to ISS (iss@buffalo.edu) or send it using UB Box (shared with kkolpack@buffalo.edu).
