Failure to complete a respiratory care professional course (RESC prefix) with a letter grade of "C" or better will subject the student to review by the Committee on Allied Health Studies and may result in the student being suspended or dismissed from the program. Students readmitted to the program at times other than the fall semester of the junior year will pick up the course sequence as prescribed by the Committee on Allied Health Studies. |
