Attendance

Students are expected to attend all classes. It is the responsibility of students who will be absent, tardy, or leaving early to contact all of their instructors to notify them of the absence. Excessive absences are determined by attendance requirements detailed in each class syllabus.

The College validates enrollment at the beginning of each semester, and students who have not attended may be automatically withdrawn. Financial aid recipients who do not attend classes may be required to repay some or all of the financial aid credited to their State Technical College of Missouri account for the semester.

If the student attends but is absent excessively, he/she must either withdraw from the class or accept the final academic grade, job readiness score, and attendance percentage earned. Once a student has attended the class, the student shall remain financially responsible for the class.
