Absence

Unless you are studying online, attendance at classes, tutorials, exams and all other academic activities is a vital part of your learning. If you are unavoidably absent from a module, it is possible that an appropriate allowance may be made, but it is your responsibility to communicate with the affected schools as soon as possible:

• you must submit a self-certificate of absence for each affected module
• you must contact the appropriate staff member to follow-up as soon as possible (in advance for planned absence)

For more details refer to the Student absence policy. See also the policy on Academic Alerts, and the Senate Regulations (see section 16 on page 3 in the Undergraduate Senate Regulations, or section VI 7 on page 6 in the Postgraduate Senate Regulations).
