Rules, Regulations, & Policies

The health and safety of UB students is always of our highest priority. However, students or others may be reluctant to get immediate medical or other professional assistance or provide it to others, because of concerns that their own behavior may be a violation of University at Buffalo rules or regulations. To minimize any hesitation students or student organizations may have in obtaining help for themselves or others due to these concerns, Judicial Affairs and Student Advocacy has developed the "Good Samaritan" approach.

UB Rules & Regulations

Please note: SUNY requires all UB students to acknowledge receipt of and affirm our UB Rules & Regulations before they will be permitted to register for classes. You will be unable to register for future classes unless you complete the affirmation form. Students who do not affirm will be blocked by the "UB Rules & Regs Affirm Hold" from registering for future classes.

You may affirm on-line and your Hold will be immediately removed. To do this, please log into your HUB Student Center via MyUB(UBIT name and password required).
