Policies

Attendance

Students may not register for any courses at Yeshiva College or Syms School of Business during the time designated for MYP studies (generally, 9 a.m. to 3 p.m.).

Students may be subject to disciplinary and academic penalties if they are excessively absent for either hakhanah [preparation] or shiur [lecture].

Attendance is taken daily.

Shiur Assignments

Shiur assignments are made by the dean or administrator of MYP, in consultation with the bochen. These are based on level and progress of learning as well as on student requests. Changes may be made only with the permission of the dean or administrator.

Students not attending classes officially assigned to them may be dismissed from MYP. Students receiving notices that they have not been assigned must arrange to see the dean or administrator immediately.

Academic Standards

Students are required to maintain satisfactory standards of scholastic performance. Students who miss examinations, fail courses, have generally poor academic records or have excessive absences will be put on probation.

If a student's record does not improve sufficiently during the following semester, he may be dismissed from MYP.
