What are the variables influencing intern applicants' decisions to apply to particular internship training programs? This single-site study investigated the decision-making process of !06 potential intern applicants who decided not to apply to an internship program. Results indicate that a variety of factors (e.g., postponing internship training, sense of limited fit with the program or location, financial or partner concerns) influenced the potential applicants' decisions. This past internship year, our university counseling center's internship program, which is accredited by the American Psychological Association (APA), received 246 requests for internship application materials. However, only 140 of those potential candidates (57%) applied. This raised the question, Why do potential intern applicants who request information not follow through and apply to our internship program? Previous research (Drummond, Rodolfa, & Smith, 1981) investigated training directors' decisions to select particular interns. They found that training directors rated most highly applicant letters of recommendation, practicum experience, prior work experience, APA-approved coursework, clinical psychology background, and personal and professional goals. In essence, training directors assessed clinical skills and professional fit with the agency in making their selection decisions. Stedman (1992) explored reasons why interns do not accept internship offers. He found the primary reasons were related to limits on training experiences, low stipend, long work hours, the desire to take partners' needs into consideration, and negative program evaluations expressed by current interns to intern applicants. These reasons appear to have less to do with profes-EMIL RODOLFA received his PhD in counseling psychology from Texas A&M University in 1981.
