If a student misses a class, they may attend a make-up class within the same semester in a class at the same or lower level, subject to class availability and DALA’s make-up class policy.
Students are welcome to attend make-up classes for any regularly scheduled class they miss including snow days or other unexpected cancellations.

Unused make-up classes expire at the end of the semester and do not carry over to future semesters.
