Given the demands of the college’s degree programs, the amount of material covered in classes, and the nature of the curriculum, all students are required to arrive on time and remain in class for all class sessions. Students who miss more than a specific number of classes automatically fail that course and repeat the entire course. Students who miss more than a specific number of classes throughout the two-year or four-year program, will also be suspended.
Major Vacations
Students who miss class(es) either on the day before or the day after the July or December vacations, will earn two absences for each class that they miss.
Religious Holidays
A student who will miss a class due to observing a religious holiday on a regularly scheduled class day, must notify the faculty member(s) ahead of time to be excused from class. The student can request extra assignments or other ways to make up the information missed, but missing classes for this reason does not count as an absence.
