*Participation in these programs is determined through application and admission. While academic advisors will guide students through this, students are responsible for applying and completing requirements for any of the programs.
Students who have suffered significant academic setbacks in their U-EXCEL coursework, such that their academic performance does not fulfill the requirements of the program, may be put on academic probation and/or dismissed from U-EXCEL. Dismissal from U-EXCEL does not affect the student's standing at the University.
Students who decide (for whatever reason) not to continue with U-EXCEL, but rather to apply via the regular admissions process, will not be penalized. While the assurances of the program would no longer apply, the College of Nursing would be happy to consider regular applications from candidates in this situation. Candidates who decide to apply via the regular application process will need to consult with a nursing advisor for information and advice regarding the timetable and requirements of the regular admissions process.
