Excused Absences is an attendance policy that names the reasons a school will approve for missing class and sets out how missed assignments and assessments may be made up.
What the catalog says
The catalog states: “Assignments and assessments may be made up under an excused absence. Late work/testing must be taken/turned in as determined by the instructor.”
On approval, the catalog says: “For an absence to be considered excusable, students must provide reason for the absence to the Student Success Partner, Academic Mentor, or Instructor for approval. Written documentation may be requested.”
“Excused absences will count as absences in the calculation of attendance rates and will not increase the maximum number of allowable absences.”
