 STUDENT ATTENDANCE
AND CLASS STANDING
Wesleyan University – Philippines is open to students
who meet its admission requirements. Until otherwise
changed, such admission requirements are as follows.
 1. A student who is late for 15 minutes may be
considered absent from the class.

 2. A student who incurs unexcused absences of more

than 20% of the prescribed number of class or
laboratory hours during the semester or term shall be
dropped from the class list.

 3. A student is officially dropped from a subject if there

is a written notice, using the official dropping form;
otherwise, he/she is still deemed enrolled for the full
term and thus, is still subject to pay all the
corresponding fees.
 4. A student who transfers or otherwise withdraws. In
writing, within two weeks after the beginning of
classes and who has already paid the pertinent tuition
and other school fees in full or for any length longer
than one month may be charged ten percent (10%) of
the total amount due for the term if he/she withdraws
within the first week of classes, or twenty percent (20%)
if within the second week of classes, regardless of
whether or not he/she has actually attended classes.
The student may be charged all the school fees in full if
he/she withdraws anytime after the second week.
However if the transfer or withdrawal is due to a
justifiable reason, the student shall be charged the
pertinent fees only up to and including the last month
of attendance.
 A grade of Incomplete (INC) shall be given to a student
who is not able to comply with all the academic
requirements (quizzes, examinations, projects,
assignments, etc.) Incomplete grades shall be
completed by a student for a period of one academic
year. A certain fee shall be charged for the completion.

 Any student who desires to transfer to another school

shall secure the necessary clearance from the
Registrar’s Office.

academic load.
 TRANSFER CREDENTIAL
