KPCOM Student Handbook 2025-2026

Dr. Pallavi Patel School of Rehabilitative Sciences (PSRS) 2025–2026 304 Academic Advising Prior to the start of classes, each new entry-level student is assigned to a faculty adviser for academic counseling. Incoming students meet with their adviser during orientation period and are encouraged to meet periodically with their adviser to review coursework to avoid any academic problems. Email Accounts Internet-based email is one of the primary communication methods between programs and students at NSU. All students are assigned an email account upon matriculation. Students must maintain and regularly check mail addressed to their NSU email address. Students are expected to check their NSU email daily, Monday through Friday, and respond to faculty members’ emails within 24 hours during the workweek. NSU faculty and staff members will only use the student’s NSU email address for correspondence. As a convenience to the student, it is possible to have your NSU mail forwarded to an off-campus email address by updating your account forwarding settings located at sharkmail.nova.edu. Further information about email can be obtained from the NSU Help Desk at (954) 262-4357 or at nova.edu/help. NSU mail can be checked from any Internet browser at sharkmail.nova.edu. Computer Requirements and Recommendations All students are REQUIRED to have ongoing access to a computer and an active account with an Internet service provider (ISP). Information regarding the minimum recommended specifications can be accessed at nova.edu/publications/it-standards. Internet Service Provider To access the university’s computing resources, all NSU students must obtain Internet access through a suitable ISP. There are many ISP providers across the country. It is the responsibility of each student to arrange for and maintain an Internet connection. Students should contact the NSU Help Desk with any questions at (954) 262-4357 or at nova.edu/help. Audio and Videotaping In some programs of study, students are audiotaped and/or videotaped in certain academic classes and clinical labs for teaching, learning, and/or grading purposes. Program offices will obtain authorization and releases from students prior to any taping. Students wishing to videotape or audiotape lectures must first obtain written permission from the individual course instructor. However, absolutely no audio or videotaping is authorized during exam reviews and exams.
