NB: There will be NO extension to any missed homework. However, we will take
the grades of the best 15 homework sets. It is the student’s responsibility to be
familiar with WebAssign. No makeup test, based on right-answer and wrong
format, will be provided.

25. Attendance Policy:

Extracts from the University Bulletin regarding withdrawal and enforced withdrawal:

A student’s absence from lectures or classes in excess of 25% of the total assigned session will result
in an automatics withdrawal of the student from the course, regardless of the causes for his/her
absence.
a) A grade of (W) is given to a student who misses 25% or more of the total sessions assigned to the
course if he/she presents a valid excuse for his/her absence.
b) A grade of (WF) is given to a student who misses 25% or more, but with no valid excuse.
