Appendix - Program Manual Attestation
The students in the Master of Science Genetic Counseling Program are responsible for reading and understanding the policies and procedures that reflect the purposes and requirements of the academic and fieldwork programs at the MGH Institute of Health Professions, as provided in the Student Handbook (/2022-2023/Student-Handbook) and the M.S. Genetic Counseling Program Manual (https://www.mghihp.edu/faculty-staff/handbooks-manuals-and-guides).
The statements contained within the GC Program Manual serve as a supplement to the Institute Catalog (https://mghihp.smartcatalogiq.com/en/2022-2023/Catalog), delineating policies and procedures that are specific to the GC Program.
The GC Program Manual has three parts: Part I contains the Program Overview; Part II contains policies and procedures related to the academic portion of the Program; Part III contains selected policies and procedures related to the fieldwork education portion of the Program; and Part IV contains important reference documents that relate to Program policies and professional standards.
I understand that I am responsible for knowing and abiding by the policies and procedures contained within the Institute Catalog, Institute Student Handbook, and the Program Manual for the M.S. Genetic Counseling Program. All questions have been answered to my satisfaction. I understand these policies are subject to revision, and that I will receive due notice of any changes that are relevant to my status in the program.
