Whatever the disciplinary action may entail, if it means not meeting academic progress, facing remediation, facing dismissal from medical school, academic integrity issues, Title IX sexual misconduct charges. Too much is at stake for a medical student if the case is not properly handled. A medical student can face lesser residency and employment opportunities, reduced earning potential.

Medical schools, to understand how the case will be resolved, it's going to depend on the nature of the case itself, the issue that is. It's critical to understand the specific resolution procedure that your school will use. It's also important to understand that medical schools, unfortunately, are often in a rush to judgment, often do not bear in mind an accused student's rights and interest and at times do not play by their own rules.
