Lateness Penalty

For Clinical Education I-V

  1. 5 percentage points for each infraction up to maximum of 25% of final clinical grade
  2. Written counseling
  3. Repeated infractions will result in recommendation for dismissal from the Program

A student with three (3) or more tardies during Clinical Education I-V will be considered habitually late and a record of written counseling will be placed on file. Any additional infractions may result in clinical probation. Clinical Probation will remain in effect for a minimum of six (6) weeks of clinical education assignments. Should the student incur any additional tardies or unexcused absences during the probation period, he/she will automatically receive a grade of an F in the enrolled clinical course. At that time, the faculty will decide if the student will repeat the entire clinical course or be recommended for dismissal from the program.
