Partner Pathway Option

Up to four (4) of the sixteen (16) total openings in our program will be reserved for students who are in the process of completing the Master of Science in Human Nutrition DPD Plus Partner Dietetic Internship track at Drexel University.

Students in this track have the option of applying to either of our start dates, however, will need to ensure that their Didactic Program in Dietetics (DPD) Verification Statement requirements are completed prior to the first day of the internship program. Some students may still have some graduate course requirements left to fulfill if they choose to start our program with the August start date.

While noted in our Application Information section, the following timeline will be followed by all Partner programs within the Drexel University Plus Partner Program:

• January 15: All students submit applications via the Dietetics Inclusive Centralized Application System (DICAS) to the program(s) they would like to be considered for.
• February 15: All Dietetic Internship programs will submit their application decisions to the Drexel DPD Director.
• February 22: The Drexel DPD Director will notify all applicants of their program match.
• March 15: All students must notify the Dietetic Internship program of their decision to attend that program no later than 5pm ET.
