Holiday Exemption Letter

According to UMD policy, “Students shall not be penalized because of observances of their religious holidays and shall be given an opportunity, whenever feasible, to make up within a reasonable time any academic assignment that is missed due to individual participation in religious observances.” It is the student’s responsibility to inform professors of any intended absences for religious observances in advance.

Please use this form to request an exemption letter from Maryland Hillel for the holidays. You will be contacted when the letter is completed and ready to be picked up at the Rosenbloom Hillel Center front desk.

  • Please only list classes that fall during the actual holiday. If you need to miss class because of travel time, email Rav Josh Lehman at jlehman@marylandhillel.org.
