Medical Absences

Students are responsible for communicating with their respective professors regarding any brief (1-2 days) periodic absence from class due to medical illness.

Prolonged Absences: Three or More Days

Students are to notify Health Services and provide medical documentation in the event of a medical absence from classes lasting three (3) or more days. Health Services will notify professors in writing of a prolonged medical absence due to illness or surgery, and the anticipated length of time of that absence.

Details of the absence are not released to faculty members in order to maintain confidentiality of the student’s private medical information. Students are expected to contact their professors regarding any missed assignments.
