According to URI Health Services Policy ADM4.19:

“URI Health Services will not provide illness excuse notes for mild, self-limited illnesses of less than 3 days duration.  If a student requires 3 or more days away from their academic responsibilities, a Dean’s Notification will be made via the URI Health Services’ administration team.  In addition, students with new medical conditions with the potential to have a long-term effect on their academic career may be referred to the University’s Office of Disability, Accessibility, and Inclusion (DAI).”
