Only students who are officially enrolled (either for credit or audit), have paid the required tuition/fees, and have met all requirements for course or clinical attendance, may attend class. The individual instructor is responsible for communicating the specific policy concerning attendance requirements. A student is responsible for the content of courses in which he or she is officially enrolled. If absences seriously affect a student's class work, the instructor is required to report this fact to the appropriate dean, who will transmit the information to OU Health Sciences Recruitment and Admissions. Classes are not to be dismissed or rescheduled for extracurricular functions.
See the Religious Accommodation policy (Section 3.19) for details on excused absences based upon religious observances.
