Attendance Policy
Attending class is vital to academic success. Accordingly, Manhattanville College expects attendance and punctuality in all classes. Students are expected to accept personal responsibility for any absences, and will be held responsible for all course content, requirements, and assignments, whether or not they are present in class. Individual instructors may establish course attendance policies, including penalties for absences and lateness. In each course, students are required to check their syllabus and must follow the attendance policy stated therein to avoid penalty. The responsibility for explaining and/or documenting individual absences rests with the student, who must understand that instructors are not obligated to grant requests for make-up or supplementary work.
In cases of emergency, please reach out to the Office of Academic Advising, and the staff there can direct you through the process of how best to handle your situation and how it may impact your attendance.
