Lake Superior College

3.17.4 Non Attendance

The purpose of the Non-attendance Policy is to appropriately assess the financial liability for students, ensure good stewardship of financial aid funds and limit the financial liability for the college.

Students are expected to regularly attend classes in which they are enrolled and abide by the College's Drop/Add/Withdrawal Policy. Students who decide to stop attending courses should immediately drop/withdraw from their class(es). Students who fail to officially withdraw from their course(s) may be assigned an FN (failure for non-attendance) grade.

For on-ground classes, student will be assigned an FN if they do not attend scheduled meetings and do not submit an assignment for 14 consecutive calendar days. For distance/internet courses, students will be assigned an FN if they do not demonstrate attendance by accessing course functions and do not submit an assignment for 14 consecutive calendar days.

A non-attendance report made by a faculty member will result in the automatic assignment of an FN (failure for non-attendance) grade. An assigned grade of FN will prohibit a student from withdrawing from a course(s). The issuing of an FN grade will activate re-evaluation of a student's financial aid and may result in repayment as stated in the Return of Title IV Funds Policy 5.12.3.
