Finalize Your Site and Site Supervisor
Once you have confirmation an individual will serve as your site supervisor, you can begin to collect the documents required to submit your practicum application. If you start the process early, make sure you remain in contact with your site supervisor to ensure or see if they are still willing and able to be your site supervisor.
