In the event that the APRC, 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 student will be referred to the FPP for an initial assessment, which could include seeking relevant information about student's personal adjustments, psychological, and/or medical status.
When a deficiency that interferes with professional development as a future veterinarian is identified, the FPP can place the student on non-academic probation, or require intervention.
