Failure to Attend the Final Examination

1- If a student's failure in a course due to absence without an excuse has not been recorded, or if a student's withdrawal from a course due to absence with an accepted excuse has been recorded, and the student continued to attend the course hours and coursework of the semester but then failed to attend the end-of-semester final examination for that course, the College Council shall decide in this case in accordance with the following:

a- If the College Council confirms that the student's failure to attend the final examination in the course was without an excuse or with an unacceptable excuse, the Council shall decide that the student has failed the course in which they were absent.

b- If the College Council confirms that the student's failure to attend the final examination in the course was due to a clear medical or accepted compelling excuse, and the student's semester coursework results were within the required averages, the Council shall grant the student the grade (Incomplete) as the final result for the course, and the Student Affairs Department shall be notified accordingly.

2- A student who has been awarded the grade (Incomplete) in one or more courses must remove this grade before the start of the following semester, within the deadlines approved by the College Council, by sitting a special examination in the course(s) they missed, as part of an approved re-sit schedule. Academic Affairs must be informed of the examination result within this period in order for it to be recorded; otherwise, the result of (Fail) shall be recorded for the course concerned.

3- If the excuse has not ceased to exist before the start of the following semester, and the student who holds the grade of Incomplete fails to sit the re-sit examination announced in the schedule, Academic Affairs shall record the result of (Withdrawn) for the course concerned.

4- The results of removing the grade of (Incomplete) in accordance with the above shall be recorded in the student's records, in the semester in which the course concerned with the grade was studied.
