Students should contact possible practicum sites as for a graduate assistantship. Students are required to attend Practicum Seminar the first semester a practicum is scheduled, but it might not be required during subsequent semesters of practica. The student and practicum site supervisor should work together to prepare a statement of goals and objectives to be accomplished during the practicum semester. The number of hours a student will spend at a practicum site will vary according to each site and the number of credit hours, but a minimum of three hours per credit hour is required for the first practica. New practicum sites are opening all the time and students can set up new sites with a practicum supervisor once they arrive on campus.
Several offices offer more than one position each year.
