Attendance Policy CGTC expects each student to be present, on time, and academically engaged in all classes. Students should enroll only in classes that they can reasonably expect to attend on a regular basis. The College works with students to make accommodations for documented absences for military duty, observed religious holidays, judicial proceedings in response to a subpoena, summons for jury duty, or other court-ordered processes will require the attendance of the student. Students absent from class for any reason are still responsible for all work missed. Students receiving financial aid (especially Pell, WIOA, VA, etc.) need to be aware that absences could jeopardize their financial aid status. They may not receive financial aid funds if they do not meet the attendance requirements of the financial aid agency. Attendance Verification Attendance verification is required each semester before financial aid funds are disbursed. To remain on the class roster, all enrolled students are required to attend at least one class session or to complete an academic- related activity during the first seven calendar days of each term. Students not meeting the attendance verification requirement may be dropped from the class Simply logging into an online or hybrid class is not considered an academic-related activity. Academic-related activities include, but are not limited to, the following: • Participating in an online discussion about academic matters • Submission of course assignments (including homework, quizzes, tests/exams) • Blackboard message contact with a faculty member to ask a course-related question Course Attendance Policy Attendance is tracked by your activity in the course. You must complete at least one of the following each week to be counted present for the week: turn in question/answer study questions, turn in Case Study assignment, or take quiz. Dropping a course Once a student is on the class roster beyond the official drop/add period, he/she becomes responsible for payment (including financial aid reimbursement). Any student who registers for a course must either complete the course requirements or officially withdraw on or before the college’s published deadline. A student should not assume that non-attendance constitutes official withdrawal. Abandoning a course instead of following official withdrawal procedures may result in a failing course grade with a work ethics grade of 0 and may 5 www.centralgatech.edu/library/ 6 www.centralgatech.edu/military/ 7 www.centralgatech.edu/studentresources/
