Attendance
It is the expectation that students adhere to the attendance policies set forth by the faculty and, in the absence of a stated policy, should attend all scheduled classes beginning at the start of each Mod through scheduled final exams. Students should refer to course syllabi for information on midterm/final exams, take-home exams, remote exams, or final projects/presentations. Any questions or potential conflicts should be addressed immediately with the faculty member. An alternate exam time may be considered only in unavoidable circumstances (e.g., illness/personal loss) and is subject to approval by the faculty member. Additional documentation may be required to support the request.
