Attendance Policy
NIA takes attendance, and, therefore, will verify participation in each registered course at the end of week 1 in the module. Students who choose not to attend the first week will be institutionally dropped from the course. After attendance is established, if at any point during the module a student fails to submit assignments for more than 14 days, the student will be institutionally withdrawn from the course and will receive a “WF” for the final grade. A “WF” will be counted as a 0 in the GPA. A grade of “WF” will count towards both Pace of Completion and the GPA calculation. For more information, Withdrawal Policy/Institutional Drop Policy.
