Our attendance policy ensures students are fully engaged in their educational journey. Attendance is crucial for maintaining academic standards, understanding course material, and preparing for future healthcare roles.

Minimum Attendance Requirement
Mandatory Attendance: Students must maintain at least 75% attendance in all classes, including lectures, practicals, and clinical sessions, to be eligible for final exams.
Attendance Calculation: Attendance is based on the total number of classes conducted per course, requiring at least 75% attendance to meet the criteria.

Attendance Monitoring
Daily Roll Call: Attendance is recorded at the beginning of each class through a biometric system. Students must be present and on time.
Attendance Records: Detailed attendance records are maintained in the ERP software and regularly reviewed by the Director of Academics.

Excused Absences
Medical Leave: Ill students must provide a valid medical certificate from a registered practitioner to the Director of Academics within a week of returning.
Personal Emergencies: In personal emergencies, students must inform the Director of Academics as soon as possible and provide appropriate documentation.
University-Sanctioned Activities: Absences for university-sanctioned activities (e.g., sports, conferences) will be excused with prior approval from faculty and the Director of Academics.

Consequences of Non-Compliance
Warning Notices: Students with attendance below 75% will receive a warning notice and must meet with their academic advisor to address the issue.
Ineligibility for Exams: Students who do not meet the 75% attendance requirement will be ineligible for final exams, potentially needing to retake the course or delay graduation.
