Affiliation Agreement Process

After interns are selected in late April or late November, the Program will send the Primary Preceptor of each practice site/facility an “Iowa State University Affiliation Agreement.”  While most agreements are not signed until a student has been offered and accepted an appointment, practice site/facility administrators should be aware of the content of this essential document early in the application process.  After a student accepts an internship appointment, appropriate practice site/facility administrators will be asked to sign this agreement with Iowa State University by June 1 if the intern will participate in the JUNE internship class or by January 1 if the intern will participate in the JANUARY internship class as a condition of the student’s final acceptance into the internship.
