according to the student handbook, thats true:
"If a student earns an unsatisfactory final grade in a second course or clerkship in the same academic year, the student will receive a grade of Failure (F) in that course or clerkship. In this case, the original Unsatisfactory (U) grade from the first course or clerkship will be changed to a grade of Failure (F). The student will be placed on an Academic Suspension status to allow the student the time to petition for reinstatement to repeat the current curriculum as a member of the following year‘s class. In addition, if a student is unsuccessful in remediating a course or clerkship, the Unsatisfactory (U) will change to a grade of Failure (F), and the student will be placed on an Academic Suspension status to allow the student the time to petition for reinstatement to repeat the current curriculum as a member of the following year‘s class. The student will be notified of the Academic Suspension (in writing) in an email and letter from the Dean. Effective the date of the suspension letter, the student is no longer permitted to attend classes or clerkships, laboratories, examinations or other college related activities. A student has the right to petition to repeat a year only once during their academic program."

but honestly, dont even think about that because its really hard to fail a thread/course (not saying it doesnt happen. But I wouldnt go in with the mindset of failing being an option) . The way NYIT-COM splits up their "classes" (at least in the first semester) is by having 3 "threads" - OMM, Basic Sciences, and DPR (clinical practice). Each thread has a certain percentage of how much each exam is worth. For example, in the Basic sciences thread, the anatomy practical is worth 30%, comprehensive exam is worth 40% etc.
In order to pass, you need to pass ALL three threads with a 70% or higher. The school is P/F with honors being awarded to the top 10% of the class.
Is it true that failing two classes you get kicked out of nyit?
