Externship

I am on disability for severe asthma and was informed by my physician that I can only do 10 - 15 hours on my externship. My school has pretty much told me that it is up to me to find my own extern site. I don't really know where to start looking. So far I have been turned down where I have looked because they won't accept anything less than 20 hours. What do I do? I need to do my externship in order to receive my degree. Please help!

Your Professional Title/Credentials: Student

Are You Still In School? Yes. Looking for externship site

Are You Working? no

Re: Externship

I would do the minimum of 20 hours which is nothing...I have to do 120 or 160 I think on top of my classes which I do not know how I will be able to! Your doctor cant really stop you, whats 5 more hours you can do a few a week, but Im not sure your circumstances
