Academic Information and Requirements – Attendance Standard

Students are responsible for withdrawing from classes and should complete an official drop form through Enrollment Services. Instructors have the option of dropping students from classes for non-attendance under these conditions.

On Campus and Hybrid Classes

• For classes that meet three, four, or five times per week: Students who fail to attend or contact the instructor by the end of the third scheduled class period may be dropped from class.
• For classes that meet twice weekly: Students who fail to attend or contact the instructor by the end of the second scheduled class may be dropped from class.
• For classes that meet once weekly (with the exception of Saturday only classes): Students who fail to attend or contact the instructor by 10 a.m. of the fifth instructional day of the quarter may be dropped from class.

Online Classes

• If the student fails to contact the instructor by phone or email by 3 p.m. of the third instructional day of the quarter, the instructor may drop the student from the class.
