Rules on Attendances
1. An Excuse Letter duly signed by the Dean shall be required from a student who was absent before he or she is allowed to enter a class.
2. A student who incurs absences of more than twenty (20%) of the prescribed number of class hours during the school term shall fail and earn no credit for the
course.
3. A student who has incurred absences of not more than twenty (20%) of the prescribed number of class hours shall be given warnings:
For a 3-unit course:
Absences in three (3) class meetings (4.5 hours) – First Warning – A Letter from the Dean is given to the student concerned.
Absences in five (5) class meetings (7.5 hours) - Second Warning – A Letter from the Dean is sent to the parent/guardian of the student concerned.
14
Absences in seven (7) class meetings (10.5 hours) – Last Warning – A Letter from the Dean is sent to the parent/guardian of the student concerned.
A student who has incurred absences beyond the last warning shall be deemed “Failed” in the course.
Rule on Tardiness
1. A student who comes to class fifteen (15) minutes late shall be marked absent, but will be allowed to stay in the class.
2. A student who is marked absent due tardiness shall not be given merit in any activity/quiz given during the class.
Rules on Periodic Examinations
A. Preliminary and Midterm Examinations
A student who has not taken either the Preliminary Examination orthe Midterm Examination on the scheduled date shall be given two weeks after the regular
schedule within which to apply for and take theSpecial Examination.He or she shall accomplish a Special Examination Application Form before taking the Special
Examination. However, if he or she fails to take the said examination within the prescribed period of two weeks after the regular schedule, he or she is given a zero
(0) mark which is non-transmutable.
B. Final Examination
A student who has not taken the Final Examination on the scheduled date shall be given a “grace period” of two (2) semesters or one academic year within which
to comply. This rule does not apply to students in their terminal curriculum year. If a student had not taken the Final Examination after the “grace period” of two
semesters or one academic year had lapsed, he or she will be given a failing mark.
