3.8.1 Roll Verification
Faculty are required to verify the accuracy of class rolls on a designated date generally 1-2 weeks after the drop/add period has concluded for each term. Class rolls are not official until drop/add is over. The roll verification periods will be listed on the academic calendar for the term, and an email message will be sent to the faculty/staff listserv each term to notify faculty of the roll verification dates.
The purpose of the roll verification process is to prevent future problems associated with tuition refunds, federal financial aid relative to Title IV refunding rules, and issuance of grades of 'NR' (not reported), 'WF' or 'F' for student who never attended class.
Instructors should check their rolls for attendance throughout the semester to ensure that students have not stopped attending the class without processing an official withdrawal.
