Reminders:
- Attendance tracking is important to many administrative offices at the University. A student’s last date of attendance/participation is utilized to process withdrawals, leave of absences, and return of financial aid.
- Courses without formal meeting dates (online classes, exams, internship, practicum, externship, independent studies, etc.) will reflect Sunday dates so faculty can record attendance.
- If you have a student who does not attend your course during the add/drop period or a student who disappears and does not officially withdraw from your course, please connect with the student’s Program Director/Chair, Advisor, and the Office of the Registrar. Students who never attend or stop attending a course are not automatically dropped from the course. Students are academically and financially responsible for courses remaining on their schedule after the add/drop period concludes.
- Students who do not officially drop or withdraw from a course and remain on your roster at the end of the course period must be awarded a final grade. Students who never attended should also be marked as “Never Attended” and awarded a final grade in the “Grading” option in Self-Service.
