Missing classes ?

Which types of absence can be justified?
 In accordance with Article no. 106 of the Academic Regulation of the UC (RAUC), the absences that may be eligible under the students Status/Special rights are justified.
Where and to whom must you deliver the document justifying your absence?
 
  • The justification of the students’ absences from classes and exams concern the Faculty or Department that is responsible for the curricular unit.
  • Therefore, the absences must be justified to the Professor (or Professors) responsible for delivering the curricular unit or to the Academic Services of that Organisational Unit in accordance with potential specific rules or regulations established by the Faculty.
What should you do if you have an exam and are summoned to attend the National Defence Day?
 
  • The National Defence Day aims to raise students’ awareness of the National Defence theme and disseminate the role of the Portuguese Armed Forces. Attending this event is a military duty that covers all 18 year old Portuguese citizens.
  • The summoned student can request the postponement of his/her attendance due to several reasons, including the accomplishment of an exam at an officially recognised education institution, on the same day or on the two immediately subsequent days.

For the postponement to be granted to you, you must submit a request according to what is established at the following link:

Usually it is necessary to attach a declaration issued by the Faculty or Department in which you sat the exam in order to attest and justify that postponement.
