Absences by students in FastForward classes are problematic due to the limited number of class sessions. If a student expects to miss more than one session, they should be discouraged from enrolling in the class. ��If an enrolled student misses more than one session, they should provide documentation for the extenuating circumstance resulting in their absence(s) for it to be considered “excused.”�� Excused absences include the list offered in the��Class Attendance Policy.�� Faculty should clearly outline in their syllabus any potential make-up work allowed for excused absences, or grade penalties associated with unexcused absences.��

Students may add or drop a FastForward course within the first week of the class meeting with no financial penalty, per the��Tuition Reversal Schedule��from the Bursar’s Office.�� Students may receive an authorized withdrawal from a course without academic penalty and receive a grade of “WX” up to Week 4.�� After that date, a student seeking authorized withdrawal without penalty must petition the Dean of his or her college, who has sole authority to grant withdrawals without penalty.
