This study will focus on attendance policies implemented at tertiary institutions of education and their impact on students. The role of all the stakeholders was considered to find the underlying causes of failure to attend classes, albeit attendance is a requirement in most institutions of higher education. Lectures, motives, and performance are interrelated. Therefore, the questionnaire designed to elicit responses from students is designed to seek how students feel about this correlation. Most research indicates there is a significant relation between lectures and motivation that leads to better performance. The main objective of this paper will be to see how the population of this study views this matter. It is a known fact that students’ perceptions of college attendance policies at times contradict those of the instructors. Therefore, the questionnaire will be administered to students in various contexts. Since cross cultural studies yield more comprehensive results, the population of this study will be comprised of students in the United States as well as in Turkey.
