REINSTATEMENT A student who withdraws or who has been dismissed from the BSDH Program (either passing or failing) has no guarantee of reinstatement into the next year’s cohort. Since the BSDH Program is limited access, availability of space in the classroom and or clinical site placement it may determine whether reinstatement can occur. In addition, a student may only re-enter the program one time, for a total of two attempts. To be considered for re-admittance, a student must reapply and pass all of the BSDH Program requirements including the interview and essay process. Each situation will be handled on a case- by-case basis. The student will be considered with all other applicants for the new academic
year; all admissions requirements apply. If a student fails or withdraws from one or more courses within the semester, the student is deemed to have completed their first attempt. If readmitted during the next application process, it will be deemed the second (and final) attempt. If a student is unsuccessful following re-entry (during the second attempt) they will be permanently dismissed from the BSDH Program. Any student failing to progress through the entire curriculum despite the two attempts permitted in order to complete the BSDH Program successfully, will be referred to an Academic Advisor to assist in exploring other educational and career options.
It is the intent of the University and BSDH Program that each student succeeds in their academic endeavors. Course expectations and requirements are outlined in each syllabus. Core faculty are available to assist students in succeeding in the program. Courses, labs, and clinics are designed to provide students the opportunity to master content areas in which they are having difficulty as well as to provide a means by which the overall course grade may be improved. Grading policies and requirements are outlined in each course syllabus. Any remediation will be documented in the student’s electronic file under a Communication or Performance Improvement.
