The student can expect to attend clinical rotation Monday through Friday, 8 hours per day, 40 hours per week, for approximately one month. It is the student's responsibility to make the arrangements required in their personal lives and schedule to accommodate the clinical rotation.
• Efforts will be made to accommodate the student's placement requests. However, the student may be required to commute up to 35 miles from campus if the clinical placement requires it. 
• During HLTH 251 there is one mandatory seminar per week in the evening on campus. Clinical rotations will be arranged by the Clinical Coordinators to make attendance possible.
