University Policies

Students will not be penalized for absence during the semester due to unavoidable or legitimate circumstances. The UCLA Policy allows for circumstances such as: verified illness, participation in intercollegiate athletic events, subpoenas, jury duty, military service, bereavement, and religious observances. Such circumstances do not include voting in local, state, or national elections. You are responsible for informing your instructor as soon as possible of missed classes and provide documentation of the reason for absence.

Incompletes require a written agreement between instructor and student. 

For details check the Cancel/add & refund deadlines.

UMN defines one undergraduate credit as equivalent to 42-45 hours of learning effort distributed across a semester (including all classroom and outside activities).

Veterans and active duty military personnel with special circumstances (e.g., upcoming deployments, drill requirements, disabilities) are welcome and encouraged to communicate these, in advance if possible, to the instructor.
