Undergraduate Policy on In-Person Arrival and Course Engagement
The start of the term is a crucial time for students to learn about course expectations and to familiarize themselves with the structure of their classes. It is also a valuable time to meet classmates and get to know instructors. In addition, early and regular course attendance is vital to achieving optimal learning outcomes.
Therefore, undergraduate students enrolled in courses with in-person class meetings are expected to be on campus and in attendance no later than the end of the first week of the quarter and must plan to remain until the end of the quarter. Note in some cases, students must attend the first class meeting to avoid being dropped. This will be clearly identified in CAESAR and the syllabus.
If exceptional circumstances arise during the quarter that require a student to be off campus for more than a week, students are expected to speak with their school adviser. Failure to meet these expectations may result in administrative withdrawal from a term or drop or withdrawal from individual course(s).
You will be informed in writing if you are administratively dropped from a course or from a term. Students are responsible for any tuition charges they may incur due to course enrollment.
