<p>I'm aiming to top schools such as ivy league and I have concern about the attendance. I had abysmal health during sophomore year led me to having surgery which resulted in missing total of 19 days but they were all excused.
Also during freshmen year, I had to go to my country to extend the visa to be able to live in the US legally, but my school counted them as 2 days of unexcused absents...
I also have 5 unexcused tardies so far..</p>
<p>Do you think it will be disadvantage for me? I don't know if the attendance shows up on my transcript. If it does, will it affect me so bad..? I kept All A even though I had many absences. I'm going to be junior in this fall and I promise myself that I will maintain perfect attendance from now on since my health is fine.</p>
<p>I don't know why I feel so stressful about this.. maybe most of my friends have been maintaing perfect attendance.
Thank you in advance.</p>
