Teaching Assistants take attendance at the start of each class and report to staff.
For planned absences, please notify us ahead of time via email at saic-youth@saic.edu.
Students are expected to attend all classes regularly and arrive on time. Full participation is required in all aspects of a course. Students who register late are responsible for catching up on all missed content and assignments.
If a student needs to miss class, it is their responsibility to contact the instructor—preferably in advance—to discuss how to stay updated on missed content and assignments.
Students who withdraw from a course must do so in writing. Nonattendance does not constitute an official withdrawal.
Religious Holiday Observance: SAIC recognizes our community's diverse religious and cultural practices. Students are expected to notify their instructors early in the semester to discuss reasonable accommodations for holidays they observe.
If you foresee needing accommodations for more flexible attendance, please contact DLRC.
