Computer Matching

All students applying to the ETSU Dietetic Internship Program must participate in computer matching. Applicants should request instructions from their DPD director to prioritize their DI preferences. 

Registering for computer matching and submitting the prioritized list of DI preferences can be completed at the D&D Digital Systems website, along with a credit card for fee payment. There is a $50 charge for computer matching that is due to D&D when the applicant prioritizes his/her DI ranking.

Deadlines:

February 15 -  Deadline for submitting computer matching information online to D&D Digital Systems and DICAS.

April 5, 2021 -  Notification day for April computer matching; personal match results available via D&D Digital Systems website beginning at 6:00 p.m. Central Time.

Appointment Day Procedures

Applicants who receive a computer match must accept or decline the match by calling the ETSU Dietetic Internship Director at (423) 439-7661 by 11:00 a.m. on April 8, 2021

AND, if accepting, emailan acceptance to the ETSU DI Director by the same deadline.

Within 10 days of matching, each appointee who has any handicapping condition or medical condition that might involve special accommodations must contact the DI Director to discuss any special accommodation needs which might be required as a result of such condition (including regular physician visits). Failure to meet this requirement will result in forfeiture of the internship position.

For students not appointed to an ETSU dietetic internship position, no application materials are returned. 

Important Applicant Responsibilities

Programs with open positions will be posted on Thursday, April 8, 2021. As a participant in the computer matching process, it is expected that applicants who do not receive a computer match will not contact any program director with open positions until that date.  This will allow programs time to confirm acceptance from their matched applicants and determine the process they will use to fill open positions. In addition, please do not ask your didactic program director to contact programs with open positions prior to that date.
