Who do I contact about internships?
|
For the Bachelor's degree in Criminal Justice, students must complete a 3 credit hour
internship. This means that you are working 15 hours a week over the course of the
semester in a criminal justice related field. UVU and the Criminal Justice department
have established some relationships with employers within the field. You can find
more information on these internship opportunities online on our internship page. You may also contact our Internship Coordinator for the College of Aviation and Public Services, James McCoy.

What will I need to know about the possibility of law school?
|
When applying to Law School you must realize that each school has different requirements
that students must meet. To get into Law School, you must have a Bachelor's degree
and taken the LSAT test. You can have a Bachelor's degree in anything from Philosophy,
Accounting, English, pretty much anything.
A student wants to prepare for the LSAT in his/her Junior year. You will want to take
the LSAT starting the first semester of your senior year, in order to have results
back in time to apply for admissions.
Please check out the following website to find more information - http://www.lsac.org/. You can also meet with the pre-law advisor on campus. To schedule an appointment
with that advisor, please call 801-863-6484.

How do I get a federal job? (FBI, CIA, DEA, etc)?
|
I applied for graduation with my Associates degree but I can no longer see the requirements
for my Bachelors degree.
|
Once you have applied for graduation for your Associates degree (or another degree/certificate)
the graduation office will change your major to the degree in which you applied for.
That major will be listed until grades are posted for the semester in which you applied
and the degree has been posted to your transcript. Your major will be changed back
to the bachelor's degree once the degree has been posted to your transcript. If you
need to see the degree requirements for the Bachelors degree, you can do a "what-if"
option found in Wolverine Track.
|
What is the waitlist and how can I get on it?
|
If a course you are registering for is full, you may register for the waitlist. This will place you on a list of students seeking to register in the course. Each
time a student drops from the course, the person at the top of the waitlist will have
a chance to enroll. Go to your detail schedule on MyUVU to view what position you
are in on the waitlist. An email is sent to your UVU email if once you are able to
register for the course. You will have 24 hours to register from the time the emails
was sent. Make sure to check your UVU email daily to ensure you don't miss your registration
window.
