Yale Changes Policy Excusing Athletes from Class

Paul Steinbach Headshot

Yale University has adjusted its dean's excuse policy as it applies to student-athletes whose travel commitments interfere with their in-class obligations.

According to the Yale Daily News, the previous policy allowed for deans to grant an excuse from class only when a student-athlete was physically off campus at the exact time of an in-class obligation, such as an exam or a presentation. Moving forward, if varsity athletes return to campus from an athletic event after midnight, they will now be able to obtain a dean’s excuse for in-class obligations taking place that day.
