Clinical Affiliates
听
Note: Other affiliates may be considered, if necessary (or requested by a prospective student).
Upon successful completion of all required Medical Laboratory Science coursework, students are guaranteed clinical externship; however, a specific site is not guaranteed. The selection of clinical sites will start with the student with the highest GPA and continue.
In avoid any confusion on whether a student is working as an employee or student, students will not be at the institution (clinical lab) where they are employed.
The program guarantees that students who have successfully completed their junior year will be assigned to one of more affiliates for the clinical externship.
- In the event one of more clinical affiliates chooses to end their affiliation with us, we will follow the statement in the agreements that says if the decision to end it occurs at least three months before the beginning of the start of the practicum the agreement will dissolve.
- Next, the Program will make every effort to place the student with the remaining affiliates.
- However, if an affiliate cannot be secured for our students in our Spring Externship, a Summer Externship will be considered.
- Still if that isn鈥檛 acceptable between the student and the Program, a new agreement will be established with a new affiliate.
