Attendance Verification Information and Instructions

Federal regulations require the University to confirm that students are attending class before financial aid will be released to the students.  Attendance must be verified for all students regardless of whether or not the student is receiving financial aid.  Students will not receive aid for and will be dropped from classes for which attendance is not verified.

The attendance verification is done through Faculty My.GeorgiaSouthern.edu. Faculty must submit attendance verification for each class being taught or supervised by the instructor including directed study, thesis, practicums, and internships. Faculty may view all classes assigned to them through their Faculty WINGS schedule. Faculty may use the Detail Class List or Summary Class List available on Faculty WINGS under the Faculty Services menu for checking the attendance for the students enrolled in their classes. To expedite the attendance verification process, a printable "Attendance Verification Sign-in Sheet" is available in My.GeorgiaSouthern.edu for faculty to print and circulate to their class to sign-in. This document would then be used as the source document for entering the attendance information in the "Attendance Form" which is also available in My.GeorgiaSouthern.edu.

Important: As the faculty member completes "Attendance Verification," you must click on the "Complete Verification " button on each page of the listing of students. Failure to do so will not complete the submission of attendance information.

NOTE: If a student is added to your class or a student starts attending after the faculty member submits the attendance information, the instructor may go back to the "Attendance Form" and submit the updated information for that student.

If additional assistance in submitting attendance information is needed, you should contact the WINGS helpline at 478-0735 or email WINGS@georgiasouthern.edu.

Faculty WINGS training sessions for new faculty and for faculty who want to review the attendance verification process in WINGS may be scheduled by contacting WINGS at wings@georgiasouthern.edu or 478-0735.
