Clinical, Practicum, Student Teaching, and Internship Placements Outside of Illinois
Students completing a clinical, internship, practicum, student teaching, or similar learning placement in states outside of Illinois may require additional permission by Lewis University, the placement state, or Illinois licensing boards. Students interested in learning placements outside of Illinois should consult with an academic advisor in their program and appropriate licensure agencies prior to beginning a learning placement outside of Illinois.
Furthermore, the curricular and field placement learning experiences that are a part of a student's graduation requirements at Lewis University are in alignment with the state of Illinois academic experiences only. Should a student/graduate of a program choose to leave the program or move to a different state post-graduation, please be advised that the other state may require additional or different academic and field placement requirements in order for a person to be licensed/certified in that state. Students should seek out their academic advisor and appropriate licensure agencies for information regarding out-of-state placements and/or requirements for licensure/certification outside of the state of Illinois.
