Every part of an applicant’s high school transcript will be reviewed by the Admissions Committee, and that includes number of absences. There is no set number of absences that will raise concern. We will though strongly consider if a trend of excessive absences or unexcused absences is noted along with other signs of a student’s negative attitude towards classes. The review of the transcript is not just about performance.
