If the Faculty Panel on Professionalism (FPP),  the DOS, or the Dean of the SVM believes that students' non-cognitive skills are not in accordance with the Code of Conduct nor the standards specific to the SVM, the FPP, DOS, or Dean, an assessment will be required, which could include but is not limited to seeking relevant information about students' adjustments, psychological, and/or medical status.

When a deficiency that interferes with professional development as a future veterinarian is identified, the FPP, DOS, or SVM Dean can require intervention, place students on non-academic probation, or recommend suspending or dismissing students.
