Understanding the 65% Attendance Criteria
A 65% attendance cutoff is standard for students participating in recognized inter-collegiate sports, NCC/NSS camps, university youth festivals, or semester internship programs with official Duty Leave (On Duty/OD) approvals.
Official Bylaws & Academic Guidelines for 65% Attendance
On-Duty (OD) Validation: All duty leave forms must be counter-signed by faculty coordinators before semester-end compilation.
Departmental Cutoff: Several university departments set 65% as the secondary condonation floor for genuine non-medical emergencies.
Continuous Assessment: Internal test eligibility often requires at least 65% cumulative attendance up to the exam week.
Practical Lab Exemption: Laboratory courses generally require higher standards (75%–85%) even if theory allows 65% with OD.
