Notice on student absences due to the H1N1 influenza virus

Students seeking accommodations from a course instructor for missed course requirements due to an "influenza-like illness" (including the H1N1 virus) must declare their absences through Quest. Specific instructions on how to declare such absences may be found on the following web page:

http://www.quest.uwaterloo.ca/help/howdoi/students/influenza_absenteeism.html
Note that a declaration of absence must be made by the second calendar day after the absence began, and that the form referred to by the above web page is only intended for an online declaration of absences due to an "influenza-like illness".

For absences due to other illnesses, as well as absences due to influenza-related illnesses lasting longer than 10 days, the standard Verification of Illness form should be used. A link to this form is available on the following web page:
