Can a nutritionist apply for the Texas WIC DI if they have a Plan IV Verification Statement from an undergraduate program in dietetics?
No. Dietetic internships can only enroll individuals with a verification statement indicating completion of a Didactic Program in Dietetics. Individuals who have completed Plan IV and wish to become Registered Dietitians should contact a university with a Didactic Program in Dietetics and have their transcripts reviewed. The Director of the Didactic Program in Dietetics will determine what academic coursework that individual will need to obtain a DPD verification statement. A nutritionist may try contacting the university he/she graduated from or a nearby university. A complete list of universities with Didactic Programs in Dietetics may be found at the website www.eatright.org.
