In the third and final year of the program, our CMHC students spend 2-3 semesters at a community-based internship site. If your organization is interested in a partnership the first step is to attend an information session. We have an application process where applications are then reviewed by the Counseling and Counseling Psychology Staff. Organizations that are a good fit for our students and program are then invited to an Internship Fair each fall semester where they can begin interviewing students.
