Attendance Policy
All Classes
Per the Academic Catalog, students who are officially listed on a class roster are expected to attend classes.
Excessive absences, as determined by the instructor, may result in a failing grade.
Attendance requirements should be outlined during the first class meeting. For additional
information, please refer to the Attendance and Withdrawal section of our Academic Catalog. Please note that only students who have been classified as absent-only will be dropped
for non-attendance.
Online Classes
To demonstrate attendance in online classes, students must complete and submit homework
assignments, take quizzes and tests, participate in the discussion board by contributing
original and valuable comments, submit writing assignments, and/or email the instructor
with course-related questions or comments. Simply logging into Canvas does not constitute
attendance. Please refer to the Attendance Policy and Procedures for additional information.
Live Virtual Lecture Classes
Courses that are taught online via Live Virtual Lecture have listed course sessions
for which students are expected to attend. Failure to attend the Live Virtual Lecture
of a course constitutes an absence.
College Closure Due to Inclement Weather
When STLCC closes campuses due to inclement weather, all classes will be canceled
- including asynchronous online classes and live virtual lecture classes.
