Undergraduate Policies
Practicum/Clinical Absence Policy
School of Nursing Policy H_08: Students are required to participate in all regularly scheduled or substituted practicum/clinical/ laboratory experiences as they strive to meet course objectives/outcomes. Failure to complete all regularly scheduled or substituted practicum/clinical/laboratory experiences places the student at risk for not meeting course objectives. Students absent from more than 20 percent of scheduled practicum/ clinical/laboratory experiences (up to 10 percent in some courses with a restricted number of practicum/clinical experiences) will either receive a failing grade, be allowed to withdraw according to IUSON Policy H_09, or take an incomplete according to University policy as dictated by the timing and circumstances surrounding the absences.
