I am participating in academic coursework that includes a community-based practicum/internship/clinical component. May I also enroll as a Campus Corps AmeriCorps member?
Yes. Campus Corps encourages that students pursuing common good careers explore Campus Corps service, and enroll if the program requirements are in line with their priorities. Campus Corps requires that community-based internship/practicum/clinical/teaching are: (a.) “hands on;” (b.) of a service-learning nature with a built in reflection component; (c.) that students have a faculty advisor, and; (d.) that the student recruits volunteers during their term of service, and participates in National Service Days hosted by their campus. Additionally the student’s host site must qualify as a not-for-profit agency in need of assistance.
