Agencies are willing to arrange your                work schedule so that you
will not have conflicts                with other classes. Internships which
carry 6                credit hours are limited to out-of-town sites.  In
addition to the weekly work hours, interns                enrolled in 3 credit
hours must write a 10 page                paper at the conclusion of their
internship which                analyzes the practicum experience.  Interns
enrolled in 6 credit hours must write a 20 page                paper.
Guidelines for the internship paper are                provided.
