All dates are subject to change For Memorial Day and Labor Day holidays, vacation begins 5 pm Friday.  Class resumes on Tuesday morning. *There are no days off during clerkships.  All academic and clinical assignments missed during an absence must be completed satisfactorily before academic credit can be awarded for the course/clerkship.  To be excused, absences that can be anticipated, e.g., observance of religious holidays, must be requested in writing and approved by the course/clerkship director prior to or at the beginning of the clerkship. Copy of approval must be submitted to Dean of Student Affairs. Time away from fourth-year clinical rotation assignments for the purpose of interviewing for residencies is permitted under the following conditions:  A maximum of two days absence in any four week rotation is permitted for residency interviewing.  The student is responsible for obtaining faculty approval for such absences before they occur per the posted policy with a completed form.  A course director has the prerogative to assign make up work for any absence from a clinical rotation.
Absences without prior notification of the faculty will be considered as unexcused absences, and potentially subject to action of the year-appropriate Student Promotions Committee.
