Students are expected to attend all scheduled sessions of the courses for which they are registered. Absences normally impair both student proficiency and the accuracy of their instructor`s evaluations. Students with excessive absences (as determined by the instructor) may, at the discretion of the instructor, be given a failing grade in the course.
Instructors may require students who are absent excessively to obtain verification of the necessity for their absences from the Office for Student Affairs before permitting them to demonstrate that they have compensated for lost work. Three consecutive absences are reported immediately to the Office for Student Affairs.
Students enrolled for credit in courses where final examinations are given must take final examinations. University hour examinations are not scheduled on Saturdays except in those courses that regularly meet on Saturdays.
