Attendance Appeal Process
- For any absences exceeding the designated limit, the student will be required to submit an appeal letter.
- Obtain your semester attendance printout from the Attendance Office.
- Write a handwritten letter explaining the extenuating circumstances for your absences.
- If any of the absences were marked “official”, you will not need another doctor’s statement.
- If you were seen by a doctor but did not turn in a doctor’s statement, please attach this to your letter.
- Be convincing and thorough in your argument on why the Appeals Committee should accept your appeal and grant you a Renaissance Card.
