To obtain a DPD verification statement from Winthrop, students should contact the DPD Director after completing all DPD coursework. Undergraduates must also have completed the BS degree in order to obtain DPD verification. Eligible students will receive three original copies of the verification statement. Students must keep these documents in a secure location indefinitely.
Students earning DPD verification from Winthrop are not guaranteed acceptance into Winthrop's or any other institution's internship program.
Upon receiving a copy of your verification please keep one copy for your state licensing board for those states who license dietetic professionals.
