The University of Puerto Rico, Mayaguez Campus, reserves the right to deal at any time with individual cases of non-attendance. Professors are expected to record the absences of their students. Frequent absences affect the final grade, and may even result in total loss of credit. Arranging to make up work missed because of legitimate class absence is the responsibility of the student. If a student is absent from an examination due to justifiable reasons acceptable to the professor, he or she will be given a special examination.
