What is the consequence of exceeding the number of allotted absences?

• A. Withdrawn from the class.
• B. Given additional make-up days.
• C. Grade penalty only.
• D. Remedial tutoring mandatory.

Answer: (A)

Exceeding the number of allotted absences leads to withdrawal from the class. Attendance is treated as a foundational part of the course, especially in radiography, where missing sessions means missing essential instruction, demonstrations, and competency checks. When you go past the permitted absences, the program typically views this as not meeting the course requirements, and the formal action is to remove you from the class for that term. That withdrawal ends your enrollment in that course, and you may need to retake it to continue in the program, depending on specific policies. The other options describe other potential consequences, but they don’t align with the stated rule in this scenario.
