You have a "NO MAKE UP EXAM" policy and the student appears to be OK. What course of action do you take next? Solution: (Rates are posted for this solution!) I would ask the student to provide proof that she was in the hospital. I would speak to her guardians/parents about what happened. If the student is telling the truth, I would let her make up the exam because she could not control her life circumstances at that moment.
