SCHOLASTIC STANDARDS Absences Absences begin to accumulate with the first scheduled class meeting. Students may be withdrawn from a class or program for unsatisfactory attendance. Students should refer to their course syllabus for specific attendance requirements. Attendance Policy Students enrolled in Clock hour programs must complete a minimum of 90% of the required hours for each course within their program. Completing over 100% of program hours may have financial implications. Please note, no adjustments to tuition rates will be made for students who are within the attendance policy. Additional requirements may be required due to one or more of the circumstances stated below: • The courses within a program have a stricter attendance policy than the 90% stated herein. • An instructor may set a course attendance requirement higher, when make-up of time is not practical due to the nature and/or complexity of the instruction, availability of equipment, program accrediting body requirements, or the inability to replicate the learning environment. • The laboratory/externship hours are not always possible to make-up. When an absence results in the inability of the student to develop and demonstrate clinical practice objectives and meet the required hours of the course necessary for credit, the student cannot receive a passing grade and will be withdrawn from the program. • Financial Aid eligible programs that are less than 720 hours in length require completion of a minimum of 648 hours. Attendance Standards Students who fail to maintain attendance standards may be withdrawn from the course and the program, and may experience a loss of eligibility of funding to include, but not limited to, Federal Student Aid, VA Education Benefits, and third-party agency funding. Refer to the catalog section on Satisfactory Academic Progress regarding continuation of federal student aid. Students should refer to their course syllabus for specific attendance requirements. Students are responsible for verifying that their attendance is accurately recorded in the attendance system. If students identify an attendance error they must notify their instructor as soon as possible, and no later than the third business day following the date of the error. Failure to maintain attendance standards may jeopardize a student's ability to remain in the program. Minimum Progress Trade and Technical Training student progress is measured by the student's ability to accomplish competencies within stated time frames. Failure to meet all required competencies in a course may result in withdrawal from the program at the end of the course. Student Services 2019-2020
