Student Conduct and Discipline

All students are expected and required to obey federal, state, and local laws; to comply with the Regents’ Rules and Regulations and all policies, procedures, rules and regulations of UT System and UT Southwestern; to follow directives issued by an administrative official of the UT System or UT Southwestern in the course of his or her official duties; and to observe standards of conduct appropriate for an academic medical institution.

Each student, by accepting an offer of admission, is subject to UT Southwestern’s conduct and discipline policies. Student disciplinary actions for violation of standards of conduct will be conducted in accordance with institutional policies and procedures. Students will be afforded notice of the charges against them and given an opportunity to respond, and may elect to have an impartial hearing, and have certain appeal rights.
