The UGC (University Grants Commission) mandates that students must attend at least 75% of all scheduled classes to be eligible for semester examinations. This is enforced by most Indian universities.

Average attendance % = (Total attendance of all students ÷ Total possible attendance) × 100. Or calculate each student's percentage and find the arithmetic mean.

For monthly: (Days Present in Month ÷ Total Working Days in Month) × 100. Use our Monthly tab in the calculator above for a month-by-month breakdown.

Step 1: Note total classes. Step 2: Multiply by 0.75. Step 3: That's the minimum you must attend. Example: 100 classes × 0.75 = 75 classes minimum.

For a single student: (Classes attended by student ÷ Total classes held) × 100. For a class average: Sum of all student percentages ÷ Number of students.

If semester has 180 working days, 75% = 135 days minimum. You can miss 45 days. If semester has 120 days, 75% = 90 days minimum. You can miss 30 days.

Add up all subjects' attended classes and total classes, then apply the formula: Overall % = (Sum of all attended ÷ Sum of all total) × 100. This gives your cumulative attendance.
