What Is the Attendance Policy for Online Students?

Online Students attendance is the active online participation that counts as attending class.

What the catalog says

“Regular and substantive active participation online is required to achieve the minimum 80% attendance standard for graduation.”

“A student attends online courses by participating actively in classes or otherwise engaging in “academically related activities”.”

Attending a synchronous class, lecture, recitation, or field or laboratory activity, physically or online, where there is an opportunity for interaction between the instructor and students; Submitting an academic assignment; Taking an assessment or an exam; Participating in an interactive tutorial, webinar, or other interactive computer-assisted instruction; Participating in a study group, group project, or an online discussion that is assigned by the institution; Interacting with an instructor about academic matters.

“Logging into class without active participation as defined above does not constitute participation, and therefore there is no attendance credit.”
