School of Health Sciences Repeating Courses Policy

Students are required to attend the Clinical, Externship, Practicum or Professional Practice Experience Orientation prior to their first clinical, externship, practicum or professional practice experience. They receive a clinical, externship, practicum or professional practice experience manual that discusses the expectations, and students are required to sign an acknowledgement form that is submitted and included in their programmatic file. The clinical, externship, practicum or professional practice experience manual discloses that students have two attempts, regardless of grade awarded, to complete their clinical, externship, practicum or professional practice experience successfully, or they will be administratively withdrawn from the program. An approved medical (WX grade) or military leave (WL grade) will not be counted toward the count of attempts. If a student is administratively withdrawn from a clinical, externship, practicum or professional practice experience site due to circumstances out of their control, attempts will be made to secure an additional site within the same quarter for the student to complete their clinical, externship, practicum or professional practice experience.

Students enrolled in the Pathway to Patient Care Seminar course will have one opportunity to attempt the course regardless of grade (SX/UX/WX) earned.
