A student s submission of an application does not guarantee acceptance into the UNC-Prime Care program. UNC-PrimeCare applications will be reviewed and judged for acceptance by project personnel. All students who are granted acceptance into the UNC-Prime Care program must be placed into an approved UNC-CH Prime Care field placement/practicum site. All applicable UNC-CH School of Social Work and School of Nursing placement policies and procedures apply. Required Courses, Seminars & Stipend Payment Process I understand that if accepted, I must register for SOWO 741 (Integrated Behavioral Health Care with Underserved Populations) and attend all classes.

I understand that if accepted, I must attend all UNC-PrimeCare seminars and workshops held over the course of the academic year. Three will be offered in the fall, three in the spring. I understand that if accepted, I may be eligible for a stipend of up to $10,000. I further understand that my eligibility to receive this UNC-PrimeCare stipend is contingent upon my continuing satisfactory participation in the program, including but not limited to completion of all required classes, seminars, workshops and documentation completion. Participant Field Education/Internship Agreement I understand that if I am accepted into the UNC-PrimeCare program, I will be required to do the following: 1.

I further understand that potential risks of internship/field education include, but are not limited to, exposure to infectious diseases, hazardous chemicals, personal injury, illness, and even death.
