Authorized Intercollegiate Athletic Event Absences – updated 10/28/2024.
University policy recognizes the legitimate circumstances in which students-athletes will miss classes and coursework, specifically, due to the requirement of travel and competition while representing Loyola University Chicago in an official capacity. These result in unavoidable conflicts with attendance, in-class activities, exams, quizzes, or other required work. This policy applies to all course requirements, including any final examination. Each instructor will excuse student-athletes from class for authorized participation in NCAA Division I games and associated travel. The instructor may not penalize the student-athlete and will work with the student to arrange a reasonable alternative to make up missed work, including exams, or other course requirements that have an impact on the course grade.
Further, student-athletes are responsible for notifying instructors of their status on the traveling squad by providing Athletic Department documentation. Additionally, student-athletes are responsible for all material covered in class and must work with each individual instructor to complete any required work. Student-athletes are responsible for planning their schedules to avoid excessive conflicts with course requirements.
