Attendance Policy

Each student has individual responsibility for attending class regularly and for meeting course objectives.  A student is expected to attend all class meetings in a course.  Rules on tardiness and leaving class early are addressed in each instructor's syllabus.  Instructors are required to record absences and report excessive absenteeism to the Registrar. 

If a student is absent for any reason in excess of 20 percent of the class hours, he or she is in violation of the Brunswick Community College  attendance policy.  Unless the student officially withdraws from the course prior to the 60 percent plus one day point of the 16 week semester (or equivalent days for courses of other duration), he or she may receive a grade of “F.” 

Students who receive an “EXCESSIVE ABSENTEEISM NOTICE” are advised to contact their instructors immediately to review the conditions for withdrawing from the course or for continuing the course.
