• The time and location of the exam will be communicated by the program assistant to the professor or student.
• If the student is unable to write the deferred exam on the specified date, the professor may offer them a withdrawal or a DFR grade for the course as per standard process.
• Dates are determined by the School for midterm and final exam deferrals and are provided in Appendices 1, 2 and 3 for each campus respectively.

• Student must email the lab to inform them of their absence before the start time of the scheduled evaluation*. In this email, the student must provide a justification along with supporting documentation.
• Any unjustified absence will result in a NS or 0 for the evaluation.
• A retesting (deferral) date will be communicated by the lab.
• If the student is unable to complete the evaluation on the proposed date, they will be offered a withdrawal for the course with no reimbursement (unless requested before the drop date listed in the university calendar) or DFR grade for the course, to be taken at the next available offering.

*If the student is incapacitated and cannot make the request before the exam, they need to make the request and provide the documentation within 5 working days of the missed exam.

• Following a non-satisfactory (NS) scheduled lab evaluation, a learning plan will be created and uploaded on the Clinical Evaluation Online (CEO) to outline a remediation plan. This remediation plan must be completed to have access to the retest.
• The retest date will be predetermined by the lab schedule. This will be near (or at) the end of the rotation to allow the student adequate time to prepare.
• A second NS grade will result in an EIN for the lab component of the course and a NS for the course overall.
• If a student has exceptional circumstances that affected their ability to be successful on the retest, they can appeal for a 3^rd attempt through the grade review process, academic regulation A-9.
