We do not provide medical and/or mental health excuses. This is a policy made in conjunction with the Provost’s Office. The decision to excuse an absence is strictly the role of your professor. We encourage you to talk with your professors about their attendance policies and what to do if sick. You may choose to fill out this Absence from Class Form to show that you were seen by a doctor, but this does not grant you an excused absence.
In the event of serious illness requiring an extended absence, contact the Office of the Dean of Student Life in addition to your professors. The Office of the Dean of Student Life will help you decide how best to deal with the interruption in your studies.
To be considered for the possibility of a Medical Withdrawal, you must be evaluated by a Health Center Director. Only a Medical Director or the Director of Counseling Services may authorize a Medical Withdrawal.

Initial injections should be given at your own physicians’ office. The health center will not initiate immunotherapy. If a student has an allergy gap of greater than 60 days should visit with their private physician prior to receiving an injection at the Health Center.
