Attendance Policy
The University recognizes that regular attendance has a positive impact on a student’s success in his or her degree program of study. Students are expected to be in class for all regularly scheduled class periods and to report to class on time. The University posts attendance for each course every week to support academic success and properly administer financial aid. Specific attendance requirements vary by the course delivery mode, as described in the chart below.
If the class is delivered:
|
"Present" means
|

|
Student posting to a graded Discussion Board, submitting an assignment via the Virtual Classroom, or attempting or completing an Intellipath node.
