Absences will be counted from the first day of the scheduled class.
Time missed due to late arrivals and early departures will be counted as absences. There is no GRACE PERIOD.

If absent hours exceed 10% the student will be notified of the attendance policy violation and will be withdrawn. Licensure programs attendance requirements are detailed below.
