B. Student Conduct Matters Where the dismissal follows a University conduct sanction, appeal of the underlying sanction proceeds under the NLU student conduct appeal process published in the NLU Student Guidebook. C. Status During an Appeal The dismissal remains in effect while an appeal is pending unless an authorized University official determines that interim relief is appropriate. A student whose dismissal is under appeal may not participate in SCPEs or other patient-care activities. If an appeal is granted, the Program will work with the student and the University to determine the conditions and timing of the student's return. The Program will cooperate with the University appeal process and will provide relevant records when requested by the authorized University decision-maker. Additional information is provided in the NLU MSPAS Academic Grievance, Student Appeals, Harassment, Discrimination, and Non-Retaliation Policy.
XIII. EFFECT OF DISMISSAL
A. Enrollment and Courses in Progress As of the effective date of dismissal, the student is no longer enrolled in the NLU MSPAS Program, is removed from all PA courses and SCPEs, and may not attend Program classes, laboratories, examinations, or clinical experiences. The Office of the Registrar records grades for courses in progress in accordance with NLU academic policy.
B. Clinical Sites
When the student is in the clinical phase, the Director of Clinical Education notifies the affected clinical site(s) that the student will no longer attend, sharing only the information needed for the site's operational purposes and consistent with FERPA. C. Tuition, Refunds, and Financial Aid Any tuition adjustment is determined by the NLU Withdrawal from the University and Refund Policy based on the effective date of dismissal and the length of each course. For example, for courses ten to twelve weeks long, tuition is prorated from a 100%
