STUDENT INACTIVITY POLICY
Denver Seminary acknowledges the correlation between engagement in class and student success. Denver
Seminary will administratively withdraw any student who is inactive in a course during the first 2 weeks
of a full semester course (or first day of an intensive course). If a student becomes inactive at any other
time in the semester, the student will be informed of the add/drop process. When a student is
administratively withdrawn or drops a course, financial aid may be impacted and the refund schedule will
still apply. Attendance policies specific to a course may be found in course syllabi.
Inactivity is defined as:
• Residential/DC and Denver Live/Zoom Live: Missing two consecutive weeks of class and not
submitting any coursework during those two weeks. Calls/emails with the professor do not
constitute activity.
• Asynchronous: Not engaging in any of the required activities per the course design and the
syllabus for two consecutive weeks. Calls/emails with the professor do not constitute activity, nor
does logging into the Moodle system. A student must complete a required activity, such as an
ILA, threaded discussion, or submit an assignment by Saturday at 11:59 pm (MST) of the second
week of class.
• Intensive: Not attending the first day of class.
Exceptions will be made for those with relevant military or medical accommodations. The policy can also
be found in the Student Handbook.
