Pitfalls to avoidPrerequisites:
◦Notify faculty “X” weeks before◦“Successful completion of ……”
◦Not checking these things and following through may cause you last minute changes
![Page 12: YEAR FOUR ORIENTATION AY2013-2014 WELCOME Class of 2014.](https://reader038.fdocuments.us/reader038/viewer/2022110319/56649c725503460f94923590/html5/thumbnails/12.jpg)
Pitfalls to AvoidDeadlines:
◦3 weeks for IDE and extramural◦1 week for add/drop◦Cannot drop once it starts◦Cannot get credit unless enrolled before
it starts
Waivers: Request in writing for a waiver of a policy with relevant information about why you couldn’t meet the deadline…. expect no more than one
![Page 13: YEAR FOUR ORIENTATION AY2013-2014 WELCOME Class of 2014.](https://reader038.fdocuments.us/reader038/viewer/2022110319/56649c725503460f94923590/html5/thumbnails/13.jpg)
Pitfalls to avoid
Communicate! If you need time off of an elective, discuss with faculty far in advance, come with a plan to make it up.
![Page 14: YEAR FOUR ORIENTATION AY2013-2014 WELCOME Class of 2014.](https://reader038.fdocuments.us/reader038/viewer/2022110319/56649c725503460f94923590/html5/thumbnails/14.jpg)

YOUR RESPONSIBILITY!
![Page 15: YEAR FOUR ORIENTATION AY2013-2014 WELCOME Class of 2014.](https://reader038.fdocuments.us/reader038/viewer/2022110319/56649c725503460f94923590/html5/thumbnails/15.jpg)
PITFALLS!
Satisfactory with decreased weeks of credit
Incomplete (must be completed before April—or converts to Unsatisfactory)
Unsatisfactory-stays on transcript and triggers review by most medical licensing boards (ie. delays licensure for residency and practice each time you apply!)
