Except where prior notification is required in SR 5.2.5.2.1, item 3, students missing any graded work due to an excused absence bear the responsibility of informing the Instructor of Record about their excused absence within one week following the period of the excused absence, and of making up the missed work.

[US: 11/10/85 and SREC: 11/20/87; 8/9/2019]

  • *           The instructor shall provide the student with an opportunity to make up the graded work (e.g., quiz, exam, homework, etc.) and may not simply calculate the student's grade on the basis of the other course requirements, unless the student agrees in writing. [SREC: 8/20/1987; US: 2/8/2016]

For students who add a class after the first day of classes and miss graded work, the instructor shall provide the student with an opportunity to make up the graded work (quiz, exam, homework, etc.). The instructor may not simply calculate the student's grade on the basis of the other course requirements, unless the student agrees in writing. [US: 4/13/2020]
