Submitting Applications

Application Instructions

As a DNP student at UAB, you are required to submit a rotation application to your school coordinators to request a project site. This will allow your school coordinator to review the information and approve the request, if possible.

Below, you'll find detailed instructions on how to submit rotation applications in ACEMAPP.

Step 1 - Check the directory
You may start by checking the ACEMAPP directory for your clinical site and preceptor. To do this, navigate to your student homepage, click the 'Directory' tab, then select 'Entities' and review the list. If your site is not listed, that is ok, you may provide your school with this information in the application.

Step 2 - Search for your application
From your homepage, click the More tab, then Applications. Click the View All Available button. Type in UAB in the search box, locate the 'UAB DNP Scholarly Project'. Then click the blue I button in the Actions column.

Step 3 - Verify and begin application
Review the description. You will submit this application once you have established your project team and project site. Click 'Apply'.

Step 4 - Indicate project site
If you were able to find your partner site, type the name as it appeared in ACEMAPP in the 'Partner Entity' box. If your site is not listed, you can select 'Facility Not Listed'.

Step 5 - Indicate timeline and details
Enter your requested rotation start and end date. Click 'Save'.

Step 6 - Complete additional information
Complete all of the application fields to the best of your ability. If you will have multiple clinical mentors, you will have multiple sections to put each clinical mentor's information in. If you only have one clinical mentor, you can enter N/A in the 'ADDITIONAL CLINICAL MENTOR' section. Complete all information and click 'Save'.

Step 7 - Await decision
Your school will review this request. If they approve the project site, the application will be approved and a rotation will be created. The application approval means that your selected project site is an appropriate site. You will receive another email once your rotation request has been approved.
