Attendance

Attendance

Students are required to attend the first class meeting and arrive on time or they may be dropped from the class. Students taking online courses should log in to the course on the first day of class. Directions for logging in are located on the Online Education webpage.

Instructor Drops

Instructors are required to drop inactive students no later than the end of the last business day before the census date. Inactive students include those who have been identified as no-shows, those who have officially withdrawn from the class, and those who are no longer participating in the class. "No longer participating" includes, but is not limited to, excessive unexcused absences but must relate to nonattendance. In an online environment, nonparticipation in class activities will be interpreted as nonattendance. (See class syllabi for census date and class attendance policies, including what constitutes excessive absences.)

Instructors may continue to drop students through the 75 percent point of the course. A student who does not take responsibility for dropping a class may receive an "F" as a final grade.

Students who choose to drop a class are responsible for doing so using the SURF online registration system or in person at the Admissions and Records Office.
