Excused Absence(s)
Within three (3) days of the student’s return to the University from an absence, the
student who desires an excused absence must submit verification or documentation supporting
the reason for the absence to the Counseling Center. The Director of the Counseling
Center will give the student an approved excused absence form to be shared with the
student’s instructors provided the documentation presented can be verified. Acceptable
documentation includes those affidavits provided by doctors, lawyers, and other officials
when appropriate. At the discretion of the respective instructors, documents may be
reviewed for a decision.
Note: Official documents must be submitted to substantiate any request for an excused
absence lasting longer than one week.
