2023-2024 Catalog

No Show Reporting

Attendance through the ten percent (10%) date of the semester is reported using the Ellucian Self-Service Web Attendance feature.  Faculty should begin entering their class attendance data on the first day of the class. The Director of Records and Registration is responsible for setting the report due date and communicating that information to faculty each semester. The due date falls shortly after the ten percent (10%) date of the semester or course (if the course begins later in the semester).

Faculty should enter an attendance type of “P” (Present) in the corresponding date column to reflect attendance for each student.  Absences that occur after a student has entered the class should be documented by entering an “A” (Absent, no excuse) in the corresponding date column. Attendance must be recorded for every scheduled meeting day, up to the census date. 

Students who have not attended by the census date of the course [ten percent (10%) period] should be reported as a “No Show” by clicking the “Never Attended” box next to the students’ names. Course census dates are displayed at the top of the 'Census' tab. 

Faculty are required to certify their roster after the census date has passed.  This report is subject to review by Compliance Examiners; therefore, it must be accurate and submitted on time.  Failure to report attendance correctly could result in significant costs to the student and the College.  The Director of Records and Registration will work with the Deans and Department Chairs to ensure census certifications are completed by the deadline.
