Students are required to make clerkship scheduling changes a minimum of fours weeks prior to the beginning of the clerkship period. This ensures that students on the waitlist for that period can be accommodated and that the clerkship can plan patient care and educational activities.

For core clerkship late drop requests before the start of the clerkship, students must select the period they request to move the clerkship to. All 10 cores should be on the student clerkship schedule at all times. Check Core Clerkship availability in MEP Clerkships (under Clerkships/Shuffle) to identify periods with availability to move the core clerkship to.

Students who request to drop a clerkship within four weeks prior to the start date must submit this petition for review by the Committee on Curriculum and Academic Policy (CCAP).

After the first day of the clerkship, students should not use this form. They should consult with the Clerkship Director directly to discuss the circumstances and options.
