We strive to do our best to accommodate requests, however, submission of an application does not guarantee rotation placement. Once your request is received and processed, our office will email you to confirm if your request was approved/denied. If you do not hear from our office in 3-4 weeks, please send an email to Jessica Shearer to follow up on your original request.
