Dr. Pallavi Patel College of Health Care Sciences 2019–2020 105 Student Evaluation of Courses and Faculty All courses and course instructors are subject to evaluation each time the course is offered, except courses of an individual or independent study nature (e.g., independent study courses, special research projects, theses, etc.). Students shall complete course and instructor evaluations. Academic Standing Transcripts Each student’s academic achievement is reviewed each semester and a transcript is sent to the student, the department chair or program director, the dean’s office, and the financial aid office, where applicable. The transcript includes 1. grades earned 2. deficiencies (Incompletes, Failures, Probation, etc.) 3. semester GPA and cumulative GPA 4. honors (Chancellor’s List, etc.) 5. withdrawals Course Failures Failing any course, didactic or fieldwork, will result in the matter being referred to the program’s Committee on Student Progress and may lead to disciplinary action up to and including dismissal. In some programs, one or more courses may be designated as prerequisite or core competency coursework and critical for successful completion of the curriculum such that failure of a single prerequisite or core competency course may lead to dismissal. Course failures that require retakes may significantly extend the length of the program of study or require the student to withdraw from the program until the course is offered again. Students may be charged additional tuition for repeated courses. Students who are appealing a course failure will continue to attend didactic courses in the term following the course failure until all appeals are resolved. A student will only be permitted to participate in a clinical rotation experience after successful completion of all required coursework up to that point. Failure to pass any of the didactic components or their remediations may lengthen the student’s time in the program, delay graduation, or result in dismissal from the program. Further, a student who appeals course failures may not be allowed to begin any clinical rotation during the appeal process.
