The purpose of this counseling is to speak about financialmanagement principles and how best to utilize loan options for students.Health RecordsEach student is required to provide a completed Student Medical Record form to be kept on file by theClinical Education Office. Failure to submit the student medical record form will prevent the student’sparticipation in practicum, internship, and fieldwork clinical experiences.

Required medical forms are due tothe Clinical Education office within four (4) weeks of registration.Student Membership in Professional AssociationsAll University of St. Augustine students must be members of their respective professional associations(APTA, AOTA or ASOPA).

Entry-level Sectionand (2) the University’s Director of Marketing. Possible examples of University-sanctioned events mightinclude community/charitable events such as the annual 5K Run and University or departmentalpicnics/celebrations. A student-organized off-site baseball team would be an example of a non-Universityevent that could be supported by the student associations, but would need approval if the university namewas used.The SPTA, SOTA and SOPAA organizations operate independently, however, financial support may beprovided upon agreement of the supporting organization. Any use of funds requires two (2) signaturesfrom current officers of the respective organizations.Student AdvisorsA faculty advisor will be appointed for each student.

Shoulda student wish to change advisors, they should meet with their respective program director.LockersOn the Florida and California campuses, lockers are not assigned and are therefore on a first-come, firstservedbasis.
