Transportation / Additional Expenses and Fees

Transportation

Travel arrangements are the sole responsibility of the student. Students are not considered agents or employees of the University and therefore are not insured for any accidents or mishaps that may occur during travel as a part of the student’s academic program.

Additional Expenses and Fees

Students need to make their own arrangements for transportation to and lodging near clinical facilities. Students are responsible for all out-of-pocket expenses associated with clinical education, such as transportation, housing, meals, professional attire, laboratory fees, additional drug screens, additional background checks and additional immunizations or titers.

Some highly desirable elective clerkships may require students to pay additional fees to rotate at their facility. These additional fees will be the student’s responsibility.

Students are expected to adhere to each site’s unique scheduling protocols, procedures, and all scheduled educational activities. Most clerkships require holiday, overnight and weekend responsibilities.
