Question 1

How many classes can I bunk and still keep 75% attendance?

Accepted Answer

To maintain 75% attendance, your total attended classes divided by total classes held must remain at or above 0.75. For example, if 40 classes are held, you must attend at least 30. If you have attended 35 out of 40, you can safely bunk 6 consecutive upcoming classes before dropping to 75%.

Question 2

What happens if my college attendance falls below 75%?

Accepted Answer

Under UGC and university statutory ordinances across India (including VTU, Anna University, and State Universities), students falling below 75% face exam debarment. Some universities allow medical condonation down to 65% with official hospital documentation and penalty fees.

Question 3

Does BITS Pilani have a 75% attendance rule?

Accepted Answer

No, BITS Pilani (Pilani, Goa, and Hyderabad campuses) famously has a 0% mandatory attendance policy for lectures. However, certain lab sessions, tutorial tests, and surprise in-class quizzes require physical presence for grades.

Question 4

How do I calculate how many classes I need to attend to recover 75%?

Accepted Answer

If you are below 75%, use the formula: Required Classes = (0.75 × Total Held − Attended) / (1 − 0.75). That means for every single class you missed beyond the limit, you generally need to attend 3 consecutive classes without missing any.
