Documenting Community Service

Step 1
Download and complete the agency placement form and take it to the agency where you want to perform the community service for their signature.

Step 2
Bring the completed form to the office of CSSL and obtain approval to begin work.

Step 3
Download and take the student time sheet and supervisor’s evaluation form to the agency.

Step 4
Perform the community service. The documentation must be submitted no later than 30 days after completion of the service activity. If you intend to graduate, all documentation must be returned to the office no later than April 15th. If you perform service during the summer you will still be responsible for submitting the forms as requested.

Step 5
Submit your reflective essay on the service experience student exit assessment form within 30 days of completion of the service. The essay must be typewritten double-spaced in a size 12 font with a minimum of two to three pages. Students will work with the site supervisor to submit:

• A cover letter on agency letterhead
• A signed time sheet showing the number of hours completed
• A completed site supervisor’s evaluation form

Step 6
Once all of the information has been submitted and you have completed 60 hours contact the office to obtain a letter to provide to the office of the registrar for credit towards graduation.
