Undergraduate Policies
Practicum and Clinical Absence Policy

Students are required to participate in all regularly scheduled or substituted clinical practicums. Clinical practicums are defined and indicated as: practicum/clinical/simulation/Inter-Professional Education/laboratory experiences as they strive to meet course objectives/outcomes. Failure to complete all regularly scheduled or substituted clinical practicums places the student at risk for not meeting course objectives. Students absent from more than 20 percent of scheduled clinical practicums will either receive a failing grade, be allowed to withdraw according to IUSON Policy VI-A-12, or take an incomplete according to University policy as dictated by the timing and circumstances surrounding the absences.

Please refer to School of Nursing Policy AFS-22.
