• Conduct potentially requiring immediate removal from a clinical site.

The Program may temporarily remove a student from a clinical site while a concern is evaluated when necessary to protect the student, patients, clinical personnel, or the integrity of the educational experience. Such interim action is not itself a final finding of misconduct. XVI. STUDENT APPEAL RIGHTS Students shall receive appeal rights when such rights are provided by the applicable NLU or MSPAS policy. An appeal shall generally identify:

1. The decision being appealed; 2. The applicable policy; 3. The specific basis for appeal; 4. Relevant evidence; 5. The requested remedy; and 6. Any applicable deadline.

Appeals shall not be granted solely because a student disagrees with a decision when the applicable policy does not provide a basis for appeal. NLU's published academic appeal process identifies specific grounds for academic appeals, including failure to publish criteria, inconsistency with University/program policy, failure to follow published procedures, or substantial influence by factors outside the published criteria.
