Pre-Clearance Process:
WE ARE WORKING ON AN ALTERNATE CLEARANCE PROCESS - THIS INFORMATION WILL BE AVAILABLE SHORTLY
Students are responsible for making an appointment in order to be cleared prior to starting their clinical placements. This pre-clearance process is required every year - for most students, this takes place before they enter the fall semester. See appointment deadline dates below for details.
Please read the Pre-clearance Process information sheet that contains detailed information on what is required for your clearance.
Students are also responsible to download and complete the non-medical forms for their clearance appointment. The link to the non-medical forms is provided below.
Students will upload all of their original completed requirements / documents (immunizations, police clearance, etc.) to the clearance agency portal. The clearance nurse will review the requirements and documents, and then will let the student know whether they are "cleared" to go to clinical or "not cleared". If the student is "not cleared", this means that they have something missing and/or incomplete, and the student will have to make one or more additional appointments until they are "cleared" for clinical.
Students will be charged a fee for each appointment. This is why it is important that students have all required documentation ready for their first appointment.
Please note clearance deadlines, as follows:
