Members of the Training Committee will evaluate completed applications (including transcripts and reference letters) received by the due date. Applicants who meet all the criteria after their files are reviewed by members of the Training Committee, and who are selected to be interviewed, will be notified on Dec. 15th by e-mail. Interviews will be scheduled for January 22 & 23, and 26 & 27, 2009. These may be onsite or by phone. On campus visits other than interviews may be arranged with the Training Director as her schedule permits; however, selections will be made based on the formal interview process. Multiple visits are discouraged in an attempt to curb costs and to keep the selection process as equitable as possible. Contact with current and past interns is an avenue for applicants to gain information about the training program at the Counseling and Testing Center. Please be aware that one of the current interns will be serving as a member of the selection committee. She/he may elect to limit her/his contact with applicants so as not to bias her/himself in the screening process.

After Match Day has occurred, persons having interviewed for this site should expect to receive a feedback survey of their experience with our site. Your candor is greatly appreciated and the information received is used to further refine our materials, learn about the perceptions of the program, and learn about how the selection process has gone for the candidates.

The frequency or duration of contacts with the Training Director or representatives of the training program do not constitute an overt or covert commitment of a position at this internship site. Information, in addition to that supplied in the application or on the resume, may be solicited for purposes of clarification. We strictly adhere to APPIC Guidelines. These can be found on the APPIC web site at http://www.appic.org/.
