Each student is expected to be in his respective class on time at every session. All necessary tardiness or absence must be arranged with the Director, the Academic Dean, and respective instructor, to be governed by the following:
 

1. Leave of Absence. Such is granted to students under such conditions as are beyond their control, such as road hazards, weather conditions, sickness, death in the immediate family, necessary official business, and representing the school. Military leave is also recognized and excused.


2. Absenteeism. A student who is absent because of illness for three non-consecutive days per quarter is required to procure a doctor’s statement. A student who is absent more than five days per quarter will be subject to disciplinary action. The student may request a meeting with the Academic Dean to inquire about a special dispensation to continue with the quarter’s school work.


3. Tardiness. Being late to chapel and classes will not be tolerated, except in emergencies. Three incidences of tardiness equal one unexcused absence; three unexcused absences per quarter subjects one to dismissal.

For each unexcused absence, the student's final grade average will be reduced three points. A written reason for each tardiness or absence must be presented to the instructor. Unsatisfactory attendance will be reported to the Director.


4. Make-up Work. Each student is held accountable for work missed because of absence for any reason, and will be required to make it up, according to the demands of his respective instructor, the Academic Dean and the Director.
