NSU's Dr. Pallavi Patel College of Health Care Sciences - PA Jacksonville

Nova Southeastern University | 23 INTERPERSONAL, BEHAVIORAL, AND SOCIAL Applicants and students in physician assistant programs must possess the emotional health and stability required for full utilization of their intellectual abilities, the exercise of good judgment, and the prompt completion of all patient- care responsibilities. The development of mature, sensitive, and effective relation- ships with patients, families, and other members of the health care team is essential. The abilities to function in the face of uncertainties in clinical practice and display flexibility, compassion, integ- rity, motivation, interpersonal skills, and concern for others are all required. PROVISIONAL ACCEPTANCE Students are provisionally admitted to a degree-seeking program based on a review of unofficial transcripts or other specific program admission requirements. However, this admis- sion includes a condition that final and official transcripts, documents, and requirements must be received within 90 calendar days from matriculation. If these final and official transcripts, documents, and/or requirements are not received by that time, the student will not be allowed to continue class attendance. Financial aid will not be disbursed to a provi- sional/conditional student until he or she has been fully admitted as a regular student (all admissions requirements have been approved by the college/program admissions office). Students who have an unpaid balance 30 days from the start of the term will be assessed a $100 late fee.
