Field education faculty members begin meeting with accepted full-time first-year students in May to plan the field placement. This process is continued throughout the summer until everyone is placed.
Small-group interviews are scheduled after the student's deposit is received by the admission office. Students are asked to submit a resume and fill out an information form called the Student Profile. All students are expected to interview with a prospective agency before the placement is finalized.
