guarantee student placement at the requested site. Students are prohibited from completing clinical rotations at a site where their family, close friends, or personal healthcare providers are employed, unless otherwise agreed to in advance by the Program Director. To request an alternative or out-of-state elective rotation, the student must submit the following at least 90 days in advance of the planned start date: • A written request to the Director of Clinical Education via email • A completed Outside Preceptor Information Form (available from the Director of Clinical Education) • A copy of the proposed preceptor's current curriculum vitae (CV) • A Preceptor Letter of Intent and Preceptor Application, as well as notice on the preceptor's letterhead indicating willingness to serve as a preceptor, ability to meet program objectives, and agreement to abide by NLU PA Program guidelines Rotation Travel and Commuting Policy Students are solely responsible for all travel arrangements, housing, and costs associated with any rotation, and must ensure attendance at all return-to-campus activities and examinations during the rotation period. Student Health Compliance Requirements The NLU PA Program requires that each student have documented medical clearance and current immunization records on file before progressing to supervised clinical practice experiences. Students are required to meet the immunization requirements of the program, clinical rotation sites, and the CDC prior to engagement in any clinical activities. Immunization records and TB screenings must be submitted to the program and uploaded into the program's tracking system. Students who fail to submit required health documentation will not be permitted to begin clinical experiences, which will result in a delay of graduation. All costs related to health screenings and immunizations are the responsibility of the student. Immunization Requirements
