Absence notices are sent to a student鈥檚 professors to assist students who have or will miss classes due to extenuating circumstances, such as a medical reason or death in the family. Absence notices are not an official excuse. They are provided on the student鈥檚 behalf to verify the circumstance surrounding the absences and to request that the instructor work with the student to complete missed coursework when appropriate. To request a notice of absence, please email student_affairs@ccsu.edu and include documentation verifying the dates of your absence.
