If I voluntarily attend a conference or a competition during class days am I given an excused absence?

The Office of Student Affairs determines if a particular event qualifies for an excused absence. Please reach out well in advance of your departure for these extra-curricular events. If the event is not excused, students will need to weigh the benefits of the experience against any lost participation points. If you have an exam or other assessment due that day, professors are not obligated to provide you with a make-up opportunity.
