<p class="MsoNormal">Good Afternoon Class of 2026,<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><o:p> </o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal">I wanted to make you aware of the absence policy for COMLEX Level 2 and Step 2, as many of you are currently scheduling these exams. Please be aware that you are required to submit a Wufoo absence request for the day that you sit for
COMLEX Level 2 and/or Step 2. This request must be submitted ahead of time. You will not be assessed an absence for COMLEX Level 2, as it is a curricular requirement; however, you will be assessed a discretionary day for taking Step 2, as it is not required
by CUSOM. I’ve copied this policy from our Academic Bulletin and provided it below:<o:p></o:p></p>

<b>for 1 (one) day </b>from their clinical service <b>in order to sit for the COMLEX-USA Level 2-CE examination

<p class="MsoNormal"><o:p> </o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal">If you are on an independent study elective on the date of your exam, you do not need to submit an absence request. This is only if you are on a clinical rotation. Failure to provide a Wufoo request may result in referral to the APPS
committee.<o:p></o:p></p>
