Automatic Review Process

The Automatic Review Process will be conducted by a committee convened by the SON Assistant Dean for Student Support and Clinical Facilitation, and consisting of the involved faculty and the student’s faculty advisor.  A review committee will be convened in the case of:

  • Violation of the Institute’s Academic Integrity Policy or the Code of Professional Behavior for Students.

  • Failure to meet the IHP/SON immunization, OSHA, HIPAA, CPR, and any other clinical placement requirements.

  • Student request for review for exception to current policy.

A student will receive three days’ notice prior to the date of the committee meeting and will have the right to submit documents to and appear before the committee.  Any committee recommendation for dismissal of a student shall be made to the Dean of the SON.

A student may appeal a decision to dismiss or a Review Committee decision with which the student does not agree to the SON Appeal Committee (See Procedure below).
