Dietetic Internship Open House Listing

for
April 2008 Internship Matching


Welcome to the 2007-2008 listing of dietetic internship (DI) open houses. This list is compiled from information provided through the American Dietetic Association Dietetic Educators of Practitioners (DEP) listserve; other open houses might, in fact, be available. Any additional information will be added as I receive it.

Please note the following suggestions:
1) Read the webpage of an internship before you visit, email, or otherwise ask questions.  Any webpage links I am aware of are given below.

2) Remember to RSVP before you show up for an open house. You should provide your name, email address, phone number, surface mail address, and DPD name on your message. The DI director might want to contact you before you arrive with important information, such as parking and specific directions.

3) Not all DIs have formal open houses. But most encourage students to visit if possible. So contact the director of an internship you are serious about even if that DI is not on this list, or if you cannot make the formal open house listed. Perhaps special arrangements can be made. At the end of this table there is a section for DIs that request students to make their own arrangements to visit (under the heading Open Dates).
