Field Experience: Registration

Registration

Students may register for a Field Experience for the Fall or Spring semester, or for Summer Session II. Students may not register for a Field Experience for Summer Session I. It is acceptable for students to begin work hours on site before the start of the semester, or to finish them after the end of the semester -- not every organization operates on a semester schedule. Students must, however, register for a Field Experience for the semester in which he or she will do the bulk of the hours on site. See the Graduate School's policy on Required Registration:

Students are required to be registered whenever University resources (including faculty time) are being consumed to appropriately reflect work being done.

Students will not register for a Field Experience through the Connect Carolina Student Center. When the Agreement form has been completed, with signatures from the student, the site supervisor, and the faculty supervisor, submit it to the Field Experience Coordinator for the final signature. At that point, the Field Experience Coordinator will register students for Field Experience credit.

Under no circumstance can a student retroactively register for a field experience to earn credit for an internship completed in a prior semester.
