Students are not permitted to attend class if they do not appear on the class list distributed during the sixth week of classes. Such students should be referred to the Office of the Registrar to confirm their registration. Students who do not present proof of registration in a reasonable time should not be allowed to attend the class. Regular attendance is expected. Attendance regulations for a particular school may be found in the appropriate bulletin for that school.

Faculty may, at their discretion, make class attendance a contributing factor to course grades. When attendance is a contribution factor, the extent to which attendance contributes to the grade must be clearly indicated on the course syllabi, and reliable records of class attendance must be maintained. Attendance at all scheduled evaluations (e.g., examinations quizzes, in-cass writing assignments) is required; course syllabi should specify the dates of such evaluations or the timing of notification (e.g., one week prior to the evaluation date) of the evaluations. Generally, faculty may require a written excuse from an appropriate agent when a requires class meeting is missed. Faculty should consult with their dean's office to determine the specific policies for their school.

Faculty who teach undergraduate courses should inform themselves of their school's mandatory academic warning program, whereby freshman who are doing substandard work (which includes written work below "C" or failure to attend class) are informed by or (if possible) before the eighth week of the semester.
