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. They, therefore, are not insured for any accidents or mishaps that may occur during travel as a part of the student's academic program. CHSU also does not provide workers’ compensation insurance, as students are not considered employees.

Additional Expenses and Fees

Students are responsible for fees related to required immunizations. Students must make their own arrangements for transportation to and lodging near clinical facilities as applicable. For selective and elective rotations, 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 elective clerkships or audition rotations (including but not limited to VSLO rotations) in the OMS-IV year may require students to pay additional fees to apply or 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. Some clerkships require holiday, overnight, and weekend responsibilities.
