Federal Regulations on Non-Passing Grades

While the University does not require that instructors take attendance in their courses, the U.S. Department of Education does require (34 CFR 668.22) the Financial Aid Office Administrators to determine if a student who receives financial aid and fails to earn or is currently failing to earn a passing grade in a course has actually attended, is attending, and/or completed the course, or if they withdrew from a course without providing the university official notification. 

The Financial Aid Administrators are also required to adjust financial aid at any point during the semester when a student stops attending and/or engaging in an individual course while also earning a failing grade.

In addition, for students who officially withdraw we are required to document that they also began attending the course(s) from which they withdrew to determine the type and amount of financial aid they may be eligible to retain. Because a student could be a financial aid applicant at any point during the academic year, we must collect this information for all students so that financial aid eligibility can be accurately determined.
