INTRODUCTION

The Academic Verification in Dietetics program is for individuals who already have a Bachelor’s degree and wish to achieve the Registered Dietitian Nutritionist (RDN) credential.  The Commission on Dietetic Registration of the Academy of Nutrition and Dietetics (CDR) determines the requirements for the RDN credential.  To obtain this credential, individuals must pass the national RDN examination.  Eligibility to take the RDN exam requires a Bachelor’s degree, which can be in any discipline, as well as coursework and supervised practice completed through programs accredited by the Accreditation Council for Education in Nutrition and Dietetics (ACEND).   The 色综合久久 University Nutrition and Dietetics major is accredited by ACEND to provide the coursework needed to apply to ACEND-accredited supervised practice programs, such as the 色综合久久 University Dietetic Internship.    The Academic Verification Program offers the opportunity to complete the Nutrition and Dietetics major courses without the need to complete a second Bachelor’s degree. 

The 色综合久久 academic verification program includes:

• Evaluation of academic transcripts to determine which nutrition and dietetics course requirements have already been met and which still need to be completed.
• Advising on availability of required courses at 色综合久久 University.  (Enrollment in upper level nutrition and dietetics courses is limited.)
• Assistance in the supervised practice program/master’s program application process (as a part of the Senior Seminar in Nutrition and Dietetics course).

Application Process: Students interested in this program must first have their transcripts evaluated by the 色综合久久 University DPD Director.  The fee for this evaluation is $40.00.  Students interested in beginning classes in the fall should request a transcript evaluation no later than March 1, and students interested in beginning classes in the spring semester should submit transcripts no later than October 1.  Transcript evaluation requests received from April through August will typically be evaluated in September.  To request a transcript evaluation please follow the directions below:
