Students are expected to attend all classes in which they are enrolled. During the first couple of days of the term, faculty are required to take attendance and report no-shows to the Registrar’s Office. Students determine as no-shows will be removed from all classes during the first week of the term. Course attendance policies are determined by the instructor and will be communicated to students as part of the course syllabus provided at the beginning of the semester. It is the student’s responsibility to know the policy on attendance for each course in which he/she is enrolled and understand the ramifications of not attending. For many classes, failure to attend can result in a failing grade.
Students with excessive absences may be referred to the Center for Student Success for assistance in improving their class attendance and performance.
