Academic Event Policy

The purpose of the Academic Event Policy is to foster behaviors that facilitate student learning and reflect the standards expected in the workplace.

Students are expected to be present at all of their regularly scheduled class or on-line sessions. A student may be assigned zero credit for any assignment missed because of absences. Students are also expected to be in class, or online, on time and remain for the entire session. Classroom participation is particularly important at Neumont since many of the courses require collaborative learning activities. Grades may be lowered due to violations of these policies.

Students who violate the Academic Event Policy may be subject to removal from a course. Neumont reserves the right to dismiss a student based upon poor attendance. Instructors may have an even more rigid attendance policy (than this policy) for their individual courses that is announced at the beginning of each quarter and included in the course syllabus.

Refer to the Student Handbook for the specific details regarding the Neumont Academic Event Policy.
