Attendance and Drop
Attendance
Students must be officially registered for classes to attend them.
Attendance may be calculated differently depending on which faculty member teaches the class; faculty can choose if attendance counts toward a student's GPA. It is thus the responsibility of students to understand each class's attendance policy. If students will miss attendance during the first week of their enrolled term, it is their responsibility to notify faculty of their absence and coordinate required work. Without notification to the faculty member, students will be administratively dropped from the course, forfeiting their seat.
For students receiving Financial Aid, attendance is counted in their Satisfactory Academic Progress, and thus can be used to assess the financial distributions awarded to them.
Administrative Drop
Instructors may administratively drop students who do not attend school during the first week of the term. This procedure applies only to credit classes. A 100% tuition refund will be applied to the accounts of students who have been administratively dropped. Students unable to attend class during the first week should contact the instructor prior to the class meeting if they wish to avoid being administratively dropped from class.
This procedure does not relieve students of the responsibility to drop. Students who fail to attend or stop attending classes and fail to drop those classes by the published drop deadline will be responsible for the associated tuition and fees.
Drop
Students may drop classes online in MyCCC, or by filling out the Drop form in the Student Services First Stop, by Friday of the first week of the term. Students who officially drop by the designated date receive a full refund. There is no notation of the class on a transcript. The official drop date is noted in the Student Information System.
