Pathways to Success Requirements

Advising

Meeting with one's academic advisor at least three times per semester is required of all Pathways students. Advisor visits are assigned points toward a student's grade in the university studies classes (UNIV 1005 and UNIV 0008). A student must also meet with their advisor in order to schedule, add, or drop a class.

Class Attendance

Attendance is mandatory for all class meetings. There is no such thing as an "excused absence" in any Pathways course. Students absent for more than one week of classes will automatically fail the course. Missing

  • four (4) classes or more for a summer course that meets four times a week,
  • four (4) classes or more in a semester for a course that meets three times a week,
  • three (3) classes or more in a semester for a course that meets two times a week, or
  • two (2) classes or more for a class that meets once a week will result in a failing grade for that course.
LSU Eunice defines attendance as the student being present in the assigned classroom each class period from the time the class is scheduled to begin until the class is scheduled to end. Students who come in after the scheduled starting time or leave before the scheduled ending time can, at the discretion of the instructor, be counted as absent. Please note that makeup work is assigned at the discretion of the instructor. It is the prerogative of the instructor to allow no make up work.
