ATTENDANCE POLICY
Attendance is recorded at the beginning of each class. Class attendance records are maintained
and monitored by MediaTech Institute. At the end of each course, a student's individual attendance
record is added to his or her student file.
TARDY POLICY
MediaTech Institute is a clock hour school. It is vital that students make it on time to class
every day, prepared, and ready to learn. Absences, tardiness, and leaving early are taken into
account in a student's permanent attendance record, and time cannot be made up.
CONDITIONS OF TERMINATION
If a student is absent for 10 consecutive school days or 20% of the required clock hours
(whichever occurs first), he/she will be terminated. There is no probation period. A studen
t will be terminated if they accumulate hours of absence in excess of 20% of the total program
hours before a point where a refund would not be due. No provision in this policy shall require
MediaTech Institute to terminate the enrollment of a student for lack of attendance at a point at
which a refund would not be due.
Students will be dismissed from classes for incidents including but not limited to: theft, cheating,
dishonesty, interference with school operations, intoxicated or drugged behavior, possession
of weapons or drugs, violence or threats of violence and use or possession of pornographic
material on campus.
