Prolonged Illness
Students are advised to report pertinent medical facts to Health Services so instructors may be notified in cases of prolonged illness. We do not contact instructors for short-term illnesses or provide excuses for missed classes; it is the responsibility of the student to contact the instructors for assignments. Should a student find it necessary to withdraw from classes for medical reasons and they are unable to withdraw in person, they should contact the Registration Office for further details and implementation of the withdrawal.
Medical Records
If you need access to specific medical records you must submit a Consent to Release Health Information to SMSU Health Services. Immunization information submitted by the student cannot be duplicated or released as it is a 'self-report' form rather than an original document of the medical record completed within Health Services.
