• Student attendance in classes is mandatory. Refer to the Attendance Policy for further details.
  • Students are required to stay updated on school/class activities by checking their KGI e-mail account and the Learning Management System (Sakai/Canvas), daily. 
  • Students are required to follow the Dress Code of the School as an integral part of their training and professionalism. 
  • Experiential programs, including internships, fieldwork, introductory and advanced pharmacy practice experiences, generally occur off-campus. The site will most likely be in an area not nearby KGI and Claremont. Students are responsible for their transportation and their own housing based on their assigned site during this period. Students must remain flexible to work hours demanded by the site, and will attend all meetings required by their preceptors and supervisors. 
  • Each student is assigned to a faculty member for advising on both academic matters and professional activities. The faculty advisor will serve as the student’s first line of communication addressing academic or professional issues.

    Additional support  services are available through the Division of Student Affairs and the services offered by The Claremont Colleges Services (TCCS). 

  • A student must complete all graduation requirements in order to graduate. 
  • Students must meet the time-to-completion requirement of 150 percent of program length. See Progression Policy. 
  • The faculty of the KGI SPHS reserve the right to revise curriculum at any time to ensure that students acquire the most current and relevant training possible. If curricular changes become necessary, every effort will be made to apprise students of the changes made and how these changes impact their course of study. In all cases, however, the production of well-prepared graduates will prevail as the dominant concern. 
  • The SPHS will graduate only those students deemed ready to accept the moral and ethical responsibilities of professional genetic counselors, physician assistants, occupational therapists, community medicine professionals, and pharmacists, and consequently reserve the right to withhold the recommendation for graduation of any student who does not satisfy those standards of readiness. 
  • Students are required to enroll in and complete courses in sequence, adhering at each level to all prerequisites. No student will be permitted to take courses out of sequence, or enroll in a course without having satisfied the prerequisites. 
  • A student may be dismissed from the program, after due process, by reason of conduct unbecoming of a professional student. 
  • A student may be dismissed from the program, after due process, due to violations of the KGI SPHS Academic Progression Policy.
