Failure to remain in compliance with these requirements may result in a hold placed on the student’s account preventing them from registering for their second semester classes and/or not allowing the student to be in a clinical agency for their experiential learning.

Reason for Policy This policy exists to provide for and ensure: 1. alignment with provisions in the clinical agency affiliation agreements related to student requirements. Upon request of an affiliate facility, the School must provide evidence of student compliance with the requirements; 2. the safety of patients and School of Nursing students, faculty and staff; 3. compliance with CCNE accreditation standards; 4. compliance with state regulations.
