Attendance & Satisfactory Progress
This is content from the Catalog 2020–2021 back issue. Please visit the current catalog for current information.
Attendance
Regular on-time attendance in class and laboratory sessions is expected of all students in the University. Unavoidable absences should be explained to the instructor involved. If a student finds it necessary to take a leave of absence during a semester, he or she should discuss this with each instructor and arrange to make up course requirements.
Students failing to attend classes during the Add/Drop period may be dropped from those courses to accommodate students on waiting lists.
Satisfactory Academic Progress
Satisfactory academic progress is defined by the University of Hawaiʻi at Hilo as maintaining an undergraduate or post-baccalaureate UH Hilo cumulative GPA of at least 2.0 or a graduate UH Hilo cumulative GPA of at least a 3.0.
