Daily & 3-Day UN Slip Procedures

As an Adviser, you will receive Daily & 3-Day UN slips in your mailboxes (see examples below). These will be individual sheets of paper for your advisees who have an absence which needs to be resolved.

  • For the Daily UN sheets, have a conversation with your advisee and if it is an absence you can resolve with a PX/VX, then go ahead and enter that. If it’s not a PX/VX absence, then direct the advisee accordingly (i.e. – tell the advisee to go talk to their teacher about an accidental entry).
  • For the 3-Day UN sheets, send the advisee to see the appropriate Adviser Chair to work through resolving the absence.
