Comprehensive Finals
Comprehensive finals will be given at the end of each year. All students are required to successfully complete the junior comprehensive final. If a student fails, he/she will be placed on academic probation and given an opportunity to attempt another examination within two weeks. If the student fails the second attempt, he/she will be dismissed from the program. The criteria for being offered a second attempt will be maintenance of a 2.0 GPA and all classes successfully completed. If a student fails a course and fails the comprehensive final, he/she will be dismissed from the program. If the student does not qualify for the repeat examination, he/she may request to repeat the first year. Concordia students repeating classes (i.e. anatomy) must successfully complete these courses to receive a second attempt on the junior comprehensive final. Successful completion of the senior comprehensive final is required. If a student fails, he/she will be given a second examination within 2 weeks.
