Absences and Excuses

Health Services does not provide class excuses for minor illnesses or injuries that result in absence from class. If one of our providers sees you when you are ill, we can provide you with documentation of the date and time of your visit. We cannot verify illness over the phone or if we have not seen you.

For routine illness-related absences, students should correspond directly with the faculty as soon as possible regarding their situation, ideally before they miss a class, exam, or other evaluative activity.
