ATTENDANCE: Most classes meet three hours per week for each course. Classes meet Mondays through Fridays. Night classes meet two and one-half hours per night. Each student is expected to be in his respective class on time at every session. All necessary tardiness or absence must be arranged for with the Director and respective instructors, to be governed as follows:

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

2. Absences and class cuts No absence is permitted except as indicated in the above paragraph. No class cuts are excused. Each case will be reviewed by the Director and faculty committee. Anyone whose attendance is determined to be unsatisfactory will be dismissed.

3. Tardiness Being late for class will not be tolerated, except in emergencies. Three times tardy equals one unexcused absence; three unexcused absences subject one to dismissal. For each unexcused absence, the student’s final grade average will be reduced five points. A written reason for each tardiness or absence must be presented to the Director.

4. Veterans attendance policy Three unexcused absences per month will be cause for termination from course of study.

5. Make-up work Each student is held accountable for work missed due to absence for any reason, and will be required to make it up, according to demands of his respective instructor. In view of the intensive work and accelerated program of the school, any student missing as much as two weeks’ total in any one session may be asked to withdraw. He may reenter the next term or a later term.
