DI Affiliates Early Admissions Table for Students

IUG Students Interested in RDN pathway

Please read the following carefully before reviewing the table:

You must submit a DICAS application. Please see Application Process for Students (eatrightpro.org). Please note, the PSU Experiential Track does not require a DICAS application at this time. However, all other DIs do require a DICAS application.
The following table provides the most up to date information about early action/early decision for dietetic internship affiliation. Check this site frequently for changes and be sure to double-check deadlines immediately prior to applying.
It is highly suggested that you contact the Director of each dietetic internship (DI) directly to be sure of their process and for the opportunity to ask questions. Please have a list of questions ready before you speak with the Director.
Deadline dates may differ for each DI and note that some DIs have a fall and a spring start date.
Only apply to a DI for Early Decision if you are willing to do that dietetic internship if accepted.
