Pre-Dispute Arbitration and Class Action Waiver Disclosure
¹ú²úÖ÷²¥ seeks to resolve disputes or claims between any student and the school in a manner that addresses an individual student’s complaint in an efficient, cost-effective, and quicker manner than traditional litigation. A student who enrolls at ¹ú²úÖ÷²¥ agrees, as a condition of his or her enrollment, to resolve any dispute through mandatory arbitration that shall not be adjudicated as a class action or a consolidated class arbitration proceeding. However, the school cannot require a student loan borrower to participate in arbitration or any internal dispute resolution process offered by the institution prior to filing a borrower defense to repayment application with the U.S. Department of Education pursuant to 34 CFR 685.206(e); the school cannot, in any way, require students to limit, relinquish, or waive their ability to pursue filing a borrower defense claim, pursuant to 34 CFR 685.206(e) at any time; and any arbitration, required by a pre-dispute arbitration agreement, tolls the limitations period for filing a borrower defense to repayment application pursuant to 34 CFR 685.206(e)(6)(ii).

Vaccinations
Nursing program:
Based on the CDC Recommended Immunizations for Health-Care Personnel (HCP), all HCPs must submit documentation of immunization to Hepatitis B (series of three doses with anti-HBs serologic testing 1-2 months after dose #3), proof of immunity to Hepatitis B, or a signed declination; Measles, Mumps, Rubella (MMR); Varicella (chickenpox); and Tetanus, include Influenza (yearly), Hepatitis A, and Pneumonia. For some individuals, a titer test will be indicated vs. vaccinations. Titer tests showing immunity to listed pathogens are acceptable. Titer tests showing a negative response require appropriate immunizations and follow-up titers must be completed and submitted. Diphtheria and Pertussis (booster every 10 years) are highly recommended immunizations for HCPs. If one or more of the listed immunizations are contraindicated, documentation must be submitted clearly identifying the reason(s). Clinical laboratory reports with the facility stamp and a medical doctor’s signature is required. See the Nursing Student Handbook for additional information.
For more information on immunizations and vaccines, visit the Center for Disease Control and Prevention website at https://www.cdc.gov/vaccines/.
Dental Hygiene program:
Enrolled students are exposed to blood-borne pathogens and infectious diseases. These include but are not limited to pathogenic microorganisms present in human blood and can cause diseases such as Hepatitis (HBV), Herpes, Tuberculosis, and HIV. Students are required to treat all patients assigned and as a result, the potential exists for transmission of blood-borne and other infectious diseases during patient care services. ¹ú²úÖ÷²¥ is committed to protecting the rights of individuals who may have a blood-borne infectious disease. The purpose of the program Blood-borne Pathogen Policy (BPP) and Exposure Control Plan (ECP) is to minimize the risk of transmission of blood-borne pathogens, as well as, minimize the risk to other environmental hazards. The dental hygiene program complies with all local, state and federal infection control policies including the application of Standard Precautions as stipulated by current CDC (Centers for Disease Control) Guidelines and OSHA (Occupational Safety and Health Administration) Standards. For policies on blood-borne and infectious diseases, contact the Dean of Dental Hygiene.
Based on the CDC Recommended Immunizations for Health- Care Personnel (HCP), all HCP students must submit documentation of immunization to Hepatitis B (series of three doses with anti-HBs serologic testing 1-2 months after dose #3), proof of immunity to Hepatitis B, or a signed declination; Measles, Mumps, Rubella (MMR); Varicella (chickenpox); and Tetanus, diphtheria, pertussis (booster every 10 years). Highly recommended immunizations for the HCP students include Influenza (yearly), Hepatitis A, and Pneumonia. For some individuals, a titer test will be indicated vs. vaccinations. Titer tests showing immunity to listed pathogens are acceptable. Titer tests showing a negative response require appropriate immunizations and follow-up titers must be completed and submitted. If one or more of the listed immunizations are contraindicated, documentation must be submitted clearly identifying the reason(s). Clinical laboratory reports with facility stamp and medical doctor’s signature are required.
The CDC Guidelines for Preventing the Transmission of Mycobacterium tuberculosis in Health-Care Settings are intended to protect the HCP student and patients. The TB screening program consists of two major components: (1) baseline single test for M. tuberculosis infection and (2) serial testing/screening for M. tuberculosis infection. The HCP student must have a baseline single test followed by serial skin testing or blood testing every year. If the HCP student has a baseline positive result or has previously had a positive result, a chest radiograph must be completed to exclude a diagnosis of TB disease. Thereafter, every year the HCP student must receive a symptom screen. Documentation of positive skin or blood test and negative chest x-ray must be submitted.
Physical Therapy program:
Based on the CDC Recommended Immunizations for Health- Care Personnel (HCP), all HCP students must submit documentation of immunization to Hepatitis B (series of three doses with anti-HBs serologic testing 1-2 months after dose #3), proof of immunity to Hepatitis B, or a signed declination; Measles, Mumps, Rubella (MMR); Varicella (chickenpox); and Tetanus, diphtheria, pertussis (booster every 10 years). Highly recommended immunizations for the HCP students include Influenza (yearly), Hepatitis A, and Pneumonia. To confirm evidence of immunity, in addition to immunization records, titers may also be required. Titer tests showing immunity to listed pathogens are acceptable. Titer tests showing a negative response require appropriate immunizations and follow-up titers must be completed and submitted. If one or more of the listed immunizations are contraindicated, documentation must be submitted clearly identifying the reason(s). Clinical laboratory reports with facility stamp and medical doctor’s signature are required.
