Policies and Procedures 2025–2026 92 7. A copy of the completed assessment will be reviewed by the Student Assistance Program Office. Recommendations resulting from the assessment will be shared with the student’s college. The assessment report will be kept in the Student Assistance Program Office and not in the student’s academic file. Student Employment Due to the intensity of all full-time academic programs, outside employment during regular school terms is strongly discouraged. Student Insurance Requirement All students are required to carry health insurance. NSU strongly encourages students to ensure their health insurance provides sufficient coverage to obtain all necessary diagnostic and treatment services following an exposure incident, prior to matriculation into clinical practice areas. Proof of insurance and documentation of all required immunizations must be provided. Students may not drop insurance coverage while in the program. The student has the exclusive responsibility for any medical bills arising during the student’s clinical training. NSU is not responsible for any medical fees incurred for emergency room visits or in other healthcare settings. For detailed information, including waiver deadlines, access to the online waiver, NSU Student Insurance Plan features, costs, and more, students should visit the bursar’s web page at nova.edu/studentinsurance. Opt-Out Required For those students who already have adequate health insurance coverage and do not need the NSU-endorsed insurance plan, this charge will be removed from their account once proof of coverage has been submitted by completing the online waiver. To complete the waiver form, go to nova.edu/studentinsurance. The online waiver is the only process by which insurance charges will be removed and coverage will be canceled. Students who fail to complete the waiver form and provide proof of health insurance by the stated deadline will not be eligible to have charges removed and will continue to be enrolled in the insurance plan endorsed by NSU. Waivers must be completed at the start of each academic year by the program’s assigned deadline, which can be found online at nova.edu/studentinsurance. In view of healthcare reform and the Affordable Care Act, as well as all forms of healthcare insurance, we wish to advise those students who have healthcare coverage from commercial carriers—or the marketplace healthcare exchanges from states other than Florida—to check with their carriers to be sure they have comprehensive healthcare coverage in the region of Florida where they will be attending classes or practicum rotations. Cell Phones, Computers, Tablets, and Electronic Devices The use of all electronic devices for nonclassroom-related (i.e., personal) business during class time is discouraged.
