CORE COURSES AND REQUIRED CLERKSHIP REPETITION

 

CORE COURSES AND REQUIRED CLERKSHIP REPETITION

Policy and Procedure

 

1.  Students must be in good academic standing in order to graduate (i.e. GPA must be 2.0 or greater) from the University of Illinois at Chicago College of Pharmacy.  In addition, all required core courses and clerkships must have been taken and a passing grade received.

2.  Students who repeat a core course or required clerkship due to a poor or failing grade may do so only once. 

3.  If a student does not obtain a passing grade after taking the core course or required clerkship twice, the Academic Standing Committee will be obliged to drop the student from the program.

4. Only under extraordinary circumstances will the Academic Standing Committee make exceptions to this policy.
