Class Attendance Policy

Class attendance is required for all JCSU students. Each student is allowed as many as hours of absence per term as credit hour (s) received (not to exceed 4) for the class. The policy does not apply to internships and student teaching. Attendance policies for these classes will be determined by the following department. A student is expected to attend all classes and not be absent without adequate cause. It is the responsibility of the student to make up scheduled work missed because of class absences. Absence from unannounced tests and other assignments may be made up at the discretion of the instructor. Students who exceed the maximum number of absences may receive a failing grade for the course. Instructors are expected to explain the attendance requirements at the beginning of the semester and to include these requirements in the course syllabus issued to students. Instructors are required to maintain accurate attendance records on all students and , if requested, to report to the Vice President of Academic Affairs any student who exceeds the number of absences allowed in that class according to the University's Class Attendance Policy.
