My mentor told me to request a month-long term break since I just applied for advanced clinicals/st today, but I received a response saying I’m unable to take a term break in the middle of my term and that I can only request it after my current term ends in January. Has anyone else had this issue? I’m using military benefits and I feel like it’s pointless to exhaust my benefits while waiting for placement especially since it can take a while. I thought it was common for people to take a term break while waiting for placement and it’s literally on the list of options for “Why I’m requesting a term break” so I’m confused! I have contacted my advisor but I wanted to see if anyone else had the same problem.

Hi guys. I have only 4 classes left and expect to apply for advanced clinicals/student teaching in October. For people seeking licensure in Georgia, how long did it take for you to get placed and actually start advanced clinicals? It would be nice to start by January, but it’d be even better if I could start before then.

I’ve seen mixed information on how long the process took, but I’m looking to hear from people in the state of Georgia specifically if possible.
