Attendance Verification Process
The Attendance Verification process confirms whether a student is currently “in attendance” at the University. This resource focuses on the overall workflow process and is for impacted students, faculty, and staff.
Introduction
The Attendance Verification process confirms whether a student is currently “in attendance” at the University. Although attendance in classes will be an important criterion, this review is an overall status of the student’s presence and engagement on campus. Not every student will be prompted to complete a verification agreement. Students will be assigned if:
- The student is enrolled in classes for the term
- AND their bill is not settled,
- AND after a review of their Blackboard, housing and card swipe activity, there is not confirmation of that the student is participating or engaging (in attendance).
PROCESS WORKFLOW
- Students are assigned the Attendance Verification Agreement. An email notification to the student will accompany this task.
- The student verifies their attendance by the provided due date.
- If students indicate they are attending in any of their classes, they will be considered “attending” and referred to Student Financials to settle their bill.
- If students indicate they are not attending in ALL of their classes, they will be considered “not attending” and withdrawn from the Term.
- If the student does NOT complete the task by the due date, faculty of the student’s enrolled courses will be prompted to respond to the student’s attendance.
- If the faculty does NOT complete their validation step, lists will be provided to the student’s School/College for review and final verification.
- Final updates are then processed by the Office of the University Registrar (OUR) and students confirmed as not attending will be term withdrawn.
Upon validation that the student is not active and not attending classes, OUR will withdraw them from the Term.
- Students: proceed to the Attendance Verification Task resource for instructions on completing the task.
- Faculty: proceed to the Attendance Verification Report resource for instructions on completing verification.
- Staff: proceed to the Support Attendance Verification resource for support features.
