Up to eight of the Combined MS/DI Program's 20 positions may be filled using the pre-selection option. Applicants apply in the fall of the senior year and must meet the GPA requirements outlined below at the time of application.

Students wishing to apply through this option should contact the Dietetic Internship Director between August 1 and September 1 for forms and instructions. Applications will be due by September 15 and a decision will be rendered by October 1. If accepted, students must accept or decline the position by October 15.
