Any policy changes at your school this year?

Our school has made some changes, with the biggest being the clinical attendance policy.

This past year, and the years before that students were allowed to miss up to three clinical days per semester. If you missed clinical you were given a makeup assignment that was decided on by your CI.

But this year, things have changed drastically. We are only allowed to miss two clinical days and the third time we miss we will receive a failing clinical grade, which means we fail the theory portion as well. And on top of that, if we miss a clinical day we must make it up at an assigned clinical location and pay $50.

What changes has your school implemented if any?
