Addition of University Attendance Policy Delete the current Attendance Policy and insert the policy below University Attendance Policy South University maintains an institutional attendance policy to support the academic achievement of its students. Students are expected to attend all scheduled class, laboratory, and examination periods each week. Students, whether present or absent from class, are responsible for knowing all that is announced, discussed, and/or lectured upon in class or laboratory, as well as for mastering all assigned reading. In addition, students are responsible for submitting on time all assignments and examinations as required in the class. Students are expected to attend all scheduled activities that are part of the class, including those activities scheduled during class time and those scheduled outside of class time. An individual on-campus or online program may have specific policies (which in some cases may be more stringent than the general attendance requirements) as to the effect of attendance on class meetings, course assignments, off-campus activities, internships/externships, clinical and practicum activities, and other program requirements. Attendance Requirements Students who fail to attend an on-campus class session will be given an absence for that session. Following the drop/add period, students taking on-campus classes must not miss 14 consecutive calendar days of the scheduled class time of the on-campus class (including on-campus classes that contain an online component). If a student misses 14 consecutive calendar days the student will be administratively withdrawn from the course. Following the drop/add period, if a student misses 21 consecutive calendar days in an 11-week on-campus course that meets once per week the student will be administratively withdrawn from the course. The last date of attendance will be the last day where the student met the attendance requirements. Students taking online classes must post in their online course at least two days each week. For online classes that end on a Wednesday, students must post one day from Monday to Wednesday to meet the weekly attendance. For online classes that end on a Saturday, students must post one day from Thursday to Saturday to meet the weekly attendance. Students who fail to meet the attendance requirements for a week will be given an absence for that week (7 days). Students who fail to meet the attendance requirements for 14 consecutive calendar days during a course will be administratively withdrawn from the course. If the student is administratively withdrawn due to attendance with a passing grade the student will receive a WP grade for the course. If the student is administratively withdrawn due to attendance with a failing grade the student will receive a grade of WF for the course The last date of attendance will be the last day where the student met the attendance requirements. If a student is administratively withdrawn due to attendance with a passing grade before the 31 st calendar day of a 5½ week class, the student will receive a WP grade for the course. If a student is administratively withdrawn due to attendance with a failing grade before the 31 st calendar day of a 5½ week class, the student will receive a WF grade for the course. If a student is administratively withdrawn due to attendance after the 31 st calendar day of a 5½ week class, the student will receive a WF grade for the course. If a student is administratively withdrawn due to attendance with a passing grade before the 58 th calendar day of an 11 week class, the student will receive a WP grade for the course. If a student is administratively withdrawn due to attendance with a failing grade before the 58 th calendar day of an 11 week class, the student will receive a WF grade for the course. If a student is administratively withdrawn due to attendance after the 58 th calendar day of an 11 week class, the student will receive a WF grade for the course. 7
