Applications can be obtained from the School of Graduate Studies and
Research.
Internships
Some graduate programs include an Internship as part of the curricular
plan. Selection of a site for an Internship cannot include a situation
where a student is hired as an employee; however, some sites do provide
a stipend, and students may select such a site. Students should consult
with their advisors when selecting a site for an Internship. The advisor
will assist the student to complete the necessary arrangements (including
the application form) for the Internship. Completed applications must be
submitted to the School of Graduate Studies and Research for approval
before the student registers for the Internship. Internships are to be
arranged at off-campus sites only.

Residency Classification
A graduate student is classified as a Pennsylvania resident for tuition
purposes if he or she has a Pennsylvania domicile. Domicile is defined
as the place where one intends to and does, in fact, permanently reside.
Continuous residence in Pennsylvania for a period of 12 months prior to
the registration for a course is considered to be one of many factors of
evidence for a Pennsylvania domicile. Students not having a
Pennsylvania domicile are considered to be non-residents of the State
and are required to pay the fees established for non-residents.
The School of Graduate Studies and Research will at the time of admis-
sion establish a residency classification for each student. This classifica-
tion will be based on available information on the student's domicile.
Registration Procedures
Information regarding registration is mailed to all active graduate stu-
dents prior to each semester and summer sessions. Students may regis-
ter online using S.C.O.T.S., by fax, mail or by person at the Scheduling
Office located in Hamilton Hall. If registration is processed during the
pre-registration interval, payment can be delayed. Students registering
later should be prepared to pay for tuition and fees. A fee of $25.00 is
charged for late registration. Newly admitted students will be informed
of the registration process at the time of admission.
Identification Cards
A graduate identification card is required of all students enrolled in a
graduate course at Edinboro University of Pennsylvania. The ID card is
required to check out materials from the Baron-Forness Library, to pick
up any University check (loan, payroll, etc.), to use any of the computer
labs on campus, and to attend any of the University events. The ID card
remains valid each session for which the student is enrolled. ID cards
can be obtained at the ID Access Center located in the Van Houten
Dining Hall lobby Monday through Friday 9-11 a.m. and 2-4 p.m. (or
other times by appointment).
