=== Admitted Students ===
Upon acceptance by a CAHP program, all admitted students must complete several steps prior to enrollment and registration in the College of Allied Health Professions. Specific steps are outlined for new students in the New Student Orientation course, as well as in this section of the ''CAHP Student Handbook''.

To read the Compliance Training Policy in its entirety, refer to the [http://www.unmc.edu/studentservices/_documents/Handbook.pdf ''UNMC Student Handbook''].

=== Family Educational Rights and Privacy Act (FERPA) ===
In accordance with Federal law as established in 1974 by the Family Educational Rights and Privacy Act (FERPA), the University of Nebraska Medical Center maintains the confidentiality of student education records and allows students to inspect and review information in their educational records. For details, visit the [http://www.unmc.edu/studentservices/academic-records/ferpa/index.html UNMC Student Services website].
 
=== Orientation ===
In an effort to prepare admitted students for their programs of study in the College of Allied Health Professions, students are asked to complete a New Student Orientation course. The orientation course is required for all students taking classes in their new program of study for the first time. The course does not cost anything, and students will not receive a grade; however, they will not be allowed to start their program coursework until the orientation class is completed. The course includes important pieces such as compliance, immunizations, required forms, student handbooks, and orientation schedules. Students will be given access to the course several months prior to the start of their program and will have access to the course throughout their time in the program so that they can refer back to any information that is available in the course. For questions regarding the CAHP New Student Orientation course, contact [http://www.unmc.edu/alliedhealth/about/contact.html CAHP Academic & Student Affairs].
 
=== Registration ===
All CAHP students register for courses on a semester basis online in PeopleSoft, the student information system. CAHP Academic & Student Affairs sends out information on registration to all students prior to each registration period. See the UNMC Academic Calendar for specific dates, including Add/Drop dates. For questions regarding the registration process, contact [http://www.unmc.edu/alliedhealth/about/contact.html CAHP Academic & Student Affairs].
 
For additional information on registration, including auditing courses and adding or dropping courses, see the [http://www.unmc.edu/studentservices/_documents/Handbook.pdf ''UNMC Student Handbook''].
 
Student Holds: A hold will be placed on a student’s record, including previous students and graduates, who have outstanding obligations. Such obligations include delinquencies in tuition and fees; failure to meet student loan repayment schedules; failure to return Medical Center supplies, materials, and equipment; failure to complete pre-enrollment requirements (as outlined in the New Student Orientation course); unresolved parking tickets and fines, library fines, and other similar obligations to the Medical Center or other University of Nebraska campuses.
 
The placement and release of a hold on a student, previous student or graduate will be the responsibility of the office/unit to which the obligation is outstanding. Upon placement of a hold, the individual will be denied readmission, transcripts, and registration for subsequent terms; will have diplomas and grade reports withheld; will not have attendance verification for leans processed; and may be disenrolled from current courses.
