All students are responsible for meeting with their academic advisors after each term to define their academic goals and receive support during their degree progress.

Holistic Services and Resources

Medical Notification Policy

There are times when illness or injury requires students to adjust or restrict their ability to meet their academic requirements. It is the responsibility of the student to communicate to their instructors any medical need arising that does require an adaptation to their academic work. INMED encourages instructors to work with students to accommodate these requests. However, it is the prerogative of the instructor to determine if such accommodations can be made without neglecting the rigor of the objectives for the course. If emergent illness or injury has occurred the student may need to request, in writing, short-term absence.   Short-term absence requests should be submitted through Questions & Concerns Online Form.

INMED is subject to the provisions of federal law known as the Family Educational Rights and Privacy Rights (FERPA).  Students’ rights under this law include:

• The right to inspect and/or review their education records within 30 days of the formal submitted request from the student to the Institute. Students should submit their requests through a transcript request. 
• Request an amendment of any part of their education records that a student believes is inaccurate. Students request for an amendment should be submitted via Questions & Concerns Form.
• Right to consent to disclosures of personally identifiable information contained in student’s education records to third parties (except in situations that FERPA allows disclosure without the student’s consent). Exceptions include disclosures to:
  • • School officials with educational interests. A “school official” is a person employed by INMED in an administrative, supervisory, academic, research, or support-staff, contractors, consultants, and Board of Directors. 
    • Parents if the student is a dependent for tax purposes.
    • Appropriate individuals (e.g., spouse, parent/guardian, healthcare personnel, police) where disclosure is in connection with the health or safety of the student.
    • Federal, state, local law enforcement if the student has violated the law.
    • Comply with a judicial order or lawfully issued subpoena.
    • Authorized representatives of government entities

INMED seeks to provide an accessible education for all students.  INMED works to accommodate and mitigate barriers to access education for students with disabilities.  Accommodations are determined on an individual, case-by-case basis.  Students, requesting accommodations, should submit their requests with supporting documentation to the Director of Student Affairs.  The Director of Students Affairs office will review the request and schedule a follow-up meeting with the student to develop a plan to offer reasonable accommodations.

Libraries at the Institute plays a crucial role in boosting student success in academics, research, and campus life. It provides resources and services that support student learning and research activities.
