Academic Policy Manual Part II (3rd and 4th Years)
Preface

The provisions of Academic Policy contained in the Academic Policy Manual, Part II apply to the third and fourth years of the Stritch School of Medicine curriculum and apply to all students starting their clinical training in July 1991. The 1991 edition of the Academic Policy Manual, Part II was approved by the Medical Council of the Stritch School of Medicine on June 17, 1991 and supersedes all previous Academic Policy Manuals. The Stritch School of Medicine reserves the right to review and amend policy governing academics and promotions prior to the beginning of each academic year. The changes may be binding on all currently enrolled students.

Policies regarding preparation and registration of the student's elective program in the third and fourth years appear in the Elective Catalogue and the Introduction to Clinical Years Manual of the Stritch School of Medicine. There are a few instances, such as in the cases of the Medical Humanities Program and Clerkship Track System where more detailed descriptions of policy and procedures are published and distributed to students separately. Certain other policies and procedures of Loyola University Chicago which apply to Stritch students are published in the Student Handbook which is available through the University's Dean of Students Office located on the Medical Center Campus. Also see section titled Related University and School Policies at the end of this document. It is the personal responsibility of each student to acquire an active knowledge of the academic policies and procedures contained in the Academic policy Manual, Part II and Elective Catalogue, as well as general policies contained in the Student Handbook.
