What are potential Sample Family Care Leave Adjustments?
- Any student may choose to take Family Care Leave for 12 months returning the following year at the same time as they left the curriculum, maintaining their place in medical school and delaying graduation by 1 year. This maximizes their exposure to the formative in-person, interactive learning.
- Adjustments may differ based on where in the curriculum a leave is requested.
- The student should meet with OSA to discuss their timeline and the implications of the attendance policy.
- Any Family Care Leave would not count towards the 6-year graduation policy.
