A student who is enrolled in VCOM’s National Board Preparation course and who is in a college approved COMLEX Level 2 CE external immersion program as part of the prescribed remediation plan at the time of completing all other graduation requirements will be allowed to complete the immersion program. The prescribed remediation plan will include a date the student is to sit for COMLEX Level 2 CE. Once the student sits for the exam they will be placed on a Temporary Administrative Withdrawal by the Campus Dean until the score is returned. • Upon receiving a passing score, if all other requirements for graduation have been met, the student will be re-enrolled and will graduate on the date they receive a passing score. • If the student receives a failing score, the student will remain on temporary withdrawal and must successfully pass COMLEX Level 2 CE within a required timeframe to avoid dismissal. o Temporary withdrawal may not exceed a 180-day limit. If the total time exceeds 180 days, the student will be dismissed by the Campus Dean. C.
