Today I finally spoke with the CL Director at Connecticut Children's and after clarifying that I would be starting a practicum in June, she told me she would contact me in March regarding interviews!! I feel a bit dumb for getting so worked up about a simple call, but I'm sort of glad I got myself worked up because I tend to do better when I am a bit on edge.
I am almost finished with Cohen Children's (NY) application packet. I just need to find my transcript and xerox it. Finish the cover letter. Read over my essay, make sure it fits their needs and word limit of approximately 300. I also need a copy of the recommendation letter my supervisor at CHB wrote for me with her signature across the flap. (Cohen doesn't require a resume, cover letter or my course work evaluation from the Child Life Council, but including these things can't hurt.)
I will call or perhaps get an email address for the acting director of Child Life at Boston Medical Center since my many voicemails have gone unanswered. I just need to know if they are offering a summer practicum or internship.

I am working on the practicum application for Children's Hospital at Dartmouth, in NH. Like Connecticut Children's, CHaD requires paragraph length answers to ten questions. I have a draft of three questions I haven't encountered before and some are basically the same as Connecticut Children's questions. I will leave a voicemail for my former Psychology professor at Simmons College tonight since my emails likely went to spam and I need a third letter of recommendation. CHaD requires three recommendation letters for practicum students (really uncommon). CHaD also requires a CPR Certification which I will obtain on February 19th through an Adult, Child and Infant CPR class given through the Red Cross.
Yesterday I booked my flight for the Child Life Council's 29th Annual Conference on Professional Issues in Chicago, May 25th-29th.
Since I am waiting on an interview for one (CT), basically finished another (Cohen), working steadily on another (CHaD) and waiting to see if another (BMC) is offering program, I need to start another application (Yale) and email another (Montefiore).
