Students who are enrolled in the ISP have the option of co-enrolling in the Peace Corps Prep program. Peace Corps Prep is a certificate program for undergraduates with a focus on gaining the intercultural competence and practical skills that make a successful Peace Corps volunteer. The Peace Corps Prep program will prepare students for international development fieldwork and potential Peace Corps service by building competencies through international coursework, hands-on experience, and professional development support.

Students must be enrolled in the International Scholars Program to co-enroll in PC Prep. PC Prep requires the addition of three sector-specific classes and 50 hours of hands-on experience in that sector.
