Selection Process
First-Year CITs: Each CIT session has 12 slots reserved for first year CITs. All complete and satisfactory applications received during the October 1 to November 15 window will be considered equally. If the spots reserved for second year CITs are not filled, then those spots will be made available to prospective first year CITs.
Second-Year CITs: Each CIT session has 12 slots reserved for second year CITs. If there are more completed and satisfactory applications received by November 15 than there are spaces for second year CITs, the CITs will be chosen based on their first year CIT recommendation. If the spots reserved for first year CITs are not filled, then those spots will be made available to prospective second year CITs.
