DAOM SAP and Clinical Hours

As a reminder, in Winter Quarter of 2018, the program revised the Satisfactory Academic Progress (SAP) requirement (found in the Student Handbook https://www.emperors.edu/publications/) to read as follows:
SATISFACTORY ACADEMI C PROGRESS (SAP)
There are three requirements to maintain Satisfactory Academic  Progress (SAP).
  • Completion of scheduled program requirements.
    • Successful completion of the Capstone Project proposal by the end of 1st year (12-month period from start date).
    • Quarterly successful completion of all scheduled Medical Presentations and Clinical Rounds,
    • Quarterly successful completion of a minimum of 50 clinical hours of either Mentorship, Preceptorship, Service Learning).
  • Maintain the minimum required GPA:
    • Minimum quarterly grade point average (GPA) of 3.0.
    • Minimum cumulative GPA of 3.0.
  • Adherence to the attendance policy.
The clinical hour requirement was implement to comply with regulartory requirements and also to keep students on track with their clinical hours for ontime completion.  Each DAOM fellow is requried to complete 650 Clinical Hours, which includes 100 hours Clinical Rounds, and 100 Medical Presenations.  The remaing 450 hours is set aside for DAOM fellows to use to develope their own Mentorship, Preceptorship, and Service Learning Projects.  

Starting Fall Quarter, we'll be enforcing the 50 minimum for students clinical hours, inorder to keep students on track towards graduation, i.e. not trying to complete all of your hours in your last quarter.  Your 50 hour minimum per quarter can be completed through either a Mentorship, Preceptorship, or Service Learning Project by completing the applications below.  

Thank you to everyone who have been submitting your Applications and Evaluations in a timely manner.  If you have an ongoing project that you've started in a previous quarter, that will continue into the Fall, there is no need to fill out and additional Application.  The due date to submit new Fall Applications for your project is Friday 9/28/18.
