2017-2018 Undergraduate Bulletin

Attendance

Standard Courses

Students are expected to attend all class meetings as scheduled. Excessive absence may result in a failing grade for the course and may result in the loss of financial aid. The number of absences that constitute excessive absence is determined by the individual instructor, who announces attendance guidelines at the beginning of the semester in the course syllabus. Students who register during the Change of Program period after classes have begun are responsible for the individual course attendance policy, effective from the first day of the semester.

Remedial and Developmental Courses

In remedial and developmental courses, students are automatically considered excessively absent if their absences exceed the number of times a class meets in any two-week period and are not eligible for passing grades. In classes that meet once a week, more than two absences are excessive. In classes that meet twice a week, more than four absences are excessive. In classes that meet three times a week, more than six absences are excessive.

The remedial and developmental courses are:

  • EAP 121 and EAP 131
  • ENGW 100
  • MATH 103
