Attendance:
It is university policy that students attend every class. Failure
to attend class will lower a student's final grade. No one can expect to improve their English
if they do not come to class. If a
student is late for class 3 times, it will count as 1 absence. If a student is absent, they MUST talk to their Department Head and obtain an excused absence form. That form must then be given to the
instructor.
HWC Attendance Policy
1) Make sure every student comes to
class on time. Attendance should be checked and recorded by class on
Next-Generation Synthesis System (http://was.wsu.ac.kr).
2) Absences are exempted for the
following cases when official documents are submitted. Other than these seven
cases, any other absences are not excused.
① One day trip or round trip in a day in order to
redeem national obligation
② One day trip or round trip in a day in order to
participate in any events or official tests which are permitted by the
President of the Univ.
③ Five days for the loss of a parent
④ Five days for the loss of a grandparent
⑤ Five days on the occasion of the student’s
marriage
⑥ One day on the occasion of parent’s 60th
birthday
⑦ When hospitalized or an emergency caused by
diseases or accidents
3) Over 30 minute tardiness is
counted as absence.
4) Three times of tardiness is
counted as one absence.
5) Class absence over one-third of
the course is graded as F.
6) When a student is out of the
classroom without the professor’s permission, it will be treated as absence.
