Class Attendance for Furman - Students may have up to three (not four unexcused absences because the class meets only twice a week instead of three times a week), that is, absences that are at the student's discretion. After three unexcused absences, upon the fourth unexcused absence, the student's final grade will be lowered by one third of a letter grade at the end of the semester (eg: if a student has a total of 4 unexcused absences by the end of the semester and earned enough points to achieve a B- in the course, the grade would be lowered to a C+). After three more unexcused absences, the student's final grade will be lowered by yet another one third of a letter grade at the end of the semester (eg: if a student has a total of 7 unexcused absences by the end of the semester and earned enough points to achieve a B- in the course, the grade would be lowered to a C), etc.
