Requirements

All nursing students must complete a series of clinical experiences to successfully meet the required learning outcomes. Prior to participating in clinical learning experiences at any off-campus healthcare facility, students are required to obtain a medical clearance, drug test, and complete a criminal background check. Each clinical facility has policies regarding possible convictions and potential drug use that may restrict students from being accepted at the facility for clinical placement. 

If a student is not accepted to an assigned placement because of the findings of a background check or drug screen, Starlen College does not guarantee an alternate clinical placement. Criminal convictions and/or a record of certain other conduct may prevent a nursing student/graduate from being licensed and may preclude the nursing graduate from obtaining gainful employment as a nurse. The student is responsible for knowing the state’s licensure requirements for practicing as a registered nurse.

A student will be subject to dismissal from the program if unable to complete clinical requirements.
