| Resident Resignation |
| Any resident wishing to resign must submit a written request for release from the remaining term of their contract to their Program Director. Because the Resident Agreement is a legal document, the Program Director has the right to delay or specify the actual termination date to ensure coverage of services. |
|
| The resident will be terminated on the date agreed to by the Program Director. The paycheck will be issued at the next regular payday, provided the resident has completed the clearance process. |
|
| Declining to Sign the Resident Agreement |
| A resident may choose to decline to renew an offered agreement for the following year by not signing and returning the Agreement. The resident will remain in good standing during the remainder of the current agreement without prejudice and will perform the usual Resident functions until the end of the term of the agreement. |
|
|
| Withdrawal of Contract Offer |
| The institution reserves the right to decline to offer a resident an agreement for the next postgraduate year. The Program Director will notify the resident in writing of this decision, within a reasonable time period prior to the starting date of the next contract year. |
|
| Even if the University issues a contract for the following year, it may be withdrawn if, in the opinion of the Program Director, the resident has not met the standards for the level of training and has not completed the year in good academic standing. |
|
| The resident may appeal either action through the Grievance Procedure. |
