I received an acceptance email to Elmhurst College today. Although I'm excited to finally have some sort of acceptance letter somewhere, there are a few things that concern me about this program. 1) This will be the first cohort to matriculate into Elmhurt as this is a brand new program. I'm concerned about being the "guiene pigs" for the program. 2) This program is not yet accredited and the program director said she excepts accreditation right before we would start our level 2 fieldwork. 3) she was very honest in saying that fieldwork sites will be very limited for both level 1 and 2 because of how new the program is and not having enough time to make agreements with facilities. She said that out of state field work will most likely not be an option for either fieldwork levels for this cohort.
Anyone have any thoughts on this program? I have applied to other schools so waiting to here back from those as well. I have to give Elmhurst a $200 deposit next week, which I will most likely do, just incase I don't get in anywhere else and decide to go there.
