Upon acceptance to the program, students are requested to complete a memorandum of understanding questionnaire. The questionnaire is used to gather information on students' clinical sites they will use during the final semester of the program. If students do not yet know their clinical agency, they will simply revisit the form once students can confirm the clinical site they anticipate completing their clinical hours.
