正如医生可以出于道德和/或宗教信仰而反对提供服务一样，医科学生也可以出于良心反对参加教育活动。1996年，美国医学协会医科学生分会提出了一项决议，呼吁美国医学协会采取一项政策，支持对有道德或宗教异议的学生给予豁免。在那份报告中，学生们将堕胎、绝育和对动物进行的手术作为可能促使要求基于良心的豁免（CBEs）的活动的例子。作为对学生倡议的回应，医学教育理事会建议通过七项“指导免除医学生基于良心的活动的原则”。众议院完整地采纳了这些原则。
Just as physicians can object to providing services due to their ethical and/or religious beliefs, medical students can have conscience-based objections to participating in educational activities. In 1996, the Medical Student Section of the American Medical Association (AMA) introduced a resolution calling on the AMA to adopt a policy in support of exemptions for students with ethical or religious objections. In that report, students identified abortion, sterilization, and procedures performed on animals as examples of activities that might prompt requests for conscience-based exemptions (CBEs). In response to the student initiative, the Council on Medical Education recommended the adoption of seven “principles to guide exemption of medical students from activities based on conscience.” The House of Delegates adopted these principles in their entirety.
