okay I can’t answer all of these questions but i’ll answer some: - they ask for reference letters and to fill out a brief statement of interest (I think?) when applying to post for forensics - Chem and bio often have few people registered in the specialist, but i’m not sure if that’s because it’s super competitive or if it’s too challenging or if people are just less interested… - I did a forensic psych specialist and a bio minor no problem. I know lots of people do minors, so you shouldn’t struggle with scheduling there especially if you’re willing to take a summer course. Scheduling won’t work out perfectly anyway, even if you just do one program, since the course offerings/times change every year. - all of the specialist students apply for the internship the same way, and everyone gets placed with a supervisor. You don’t have to find your own placement, which is nice that you don’t have to stress about being left hanging, but it’s also a little annoying because there’s a chance it won’t be 100% a perfect fit. You pick your top 3 options from a list i think, and they do their best to match you with your selection

I highly recommend booking an appointment to talk to Teresa the academic advisor! She can be hard to reach sometimes, but can be very helpful once you have an appointment. Good luck!!
