Student Participation

Students are expected to actively participate in all their courses throughout each term. Those who fail to do so may be administratively withdrawn from individual courses or the College. 

Clinical faculty who teach in the LPN to BSN, Medical Assistant, Patient Care Technician, Practical Nurse, Surgical Processing Technician, and Surgical Technology programs should refer to the appropriate program-specific Healthcare Supplement for attendance/participation requirements. Faculty members must include their course-specific policies and procedures in each course syllabus.

Students impacted by illnesses, accidents or other circumstances that will significantly limit their participation in their courses must notify their faculty members as soon as possible.

Students who are withdrawn for a failure to participate will receive a grade of W, WP or WF for the course(s), depending on whether the student was passing or failing at the time of withdrawal. This may affect the student's financial aid eligibility.
