KPCOM Student Handbook 2025-2026

145 An OMS3 or OMS4 student, who was withdrawn or dropped from clinical rotations during the LOA/ ABE, will have to take all such rotations in their entirety, upon their return from the LOA/ABE, as scheduled by the Office of Clinical Education. An OMS3 or OMS4 student, who was given an IP in any clinical rotation(s), will be expected to take all missed examinations and complete any required incomplete rotation assignments after returning from the LOA/ABE, according to a schedule determined by the Office of Clinical Education. Once these requirements are completed, the grade(s) of IP will be replaced with the earned grade(s). If the student is under review for a disciplinary action, or has a disciplinary action imposed at the start of the LOA/ABE; the student may not resume the program without appearing before the SPC. Upon completion of its review, the SPC will make a recommendation to the dean as to whether the student may resume the program. If appropriate, a student may resume the program with a disciplinary action imposed at the beginning of the resumption for a stated period of time. All decisions made by the dean concerning a student’s ability to return following an LOA/ABE are final. If the student is not in good academic standing at the time of the LOA/ABE, a committee composed of the executive associate dean of the Fort Lauderdale/Davie Campus, the executive associate dean of the Tampa Bay Regional Campus, and the associate dean of Student Affairs will review the student’s record and make a recommendation to the dean as to whether the student may resume the program. 6. Leave of Absence/Administrative Break in Enrollment Records LOA and ABE records and the date of each determination shall be placed in the student’s academic record and may be recorded on the student’s MSPE. I. Withdrawal 1. Withdrawal from the College Withdrawal from the college is a resignation by the student under which the student surrenders all rights and privileges as a student in the college. A student withdrawing from the college must notify the Office of Student Affairs and complete a withdrawal form. Students who are receiving financial aid must notify FAAR and be counseled regarding their financial status. Students may receive a partial tuition payment refund or be required to repay financial aid funds (see Tuition Credit Policy—Voluntary Withdrawals section). To return to school after withdrawal, the student must apply for readmission through the Office of Admissions. A student in the Doctor of Osteopathic Medicine Program who does not register for classes by the end of the Roster Reconciliation period and has not requested and/or been placed on an approved LOA or ABE may be considered as having withdrawn from the college. A student withdrawing from the college will be withdrawn from all courses for which the student is registered but has not completed. A student withdrawing from a course will receive a W on the student’s transcript if no graded coursework has been completed, a WP if graded work has been taken and completed at a passing level, or a WF if the withdrawal occurred while the student was failing completed coursework.
