Attendance Requirements
Chapel Staff
Grove City College provides a chapel/convocation program
to promote each student’s spiritual and moral development
during the student’s collegiate educational experience. Chapel
services are the common expression of our Christian faith as
members of the campus community. Thus, chapel/convocation
attendance is a core component of the student’s experience at
Grove City College.
Dr. F. Stanley Keehlwetter
Semester attendance requirements:
1. Full-time students (12 or more credits): 16 chapels.
2. Students enrolled at least half-time but less than
full-time (six to 11 credits): eight chapels.
3. Students enrolled less than half time (five or fewer
credits): not required to attend.
Enrollment status will be determined for each student at
the conclusion of the course drop/add week. Withdrawing
from courses after that date will not affect the number of
chapels owed during a semester. A student enrolled as
an undergraduate beyond the four-year degree period
must attend chapel within the requirements listed above.
Semester requirements not fulfilled must be made up.
A student who owes 10 or more chapel requirements on
or after his/her class’s registration date will not be permitted
to register for the next semester or obtain transcripts until
the requirement is met. Transcripts will be held for students
who withdraw or transfer from the College with 10 or more
unfulfilled chapels. Any student who has not fulfilled the chapel
attendance requirement by graduation will not be certified as
a graduate until the requirement has been satisfied. Students
owing more than six chapel requirements will not be permitted
to participate in the College’s Commencement ceremony.
