Today, my college professor said that anyone who misses the final next week automatically fails, "even if their grandmother died." My grandmother, the woman who raised me, died last night and her funeral is next week. Same day as the final. Across the country. FML

Talk to the Dean and see if there's something you can't do to either take the final early, or provide proof of death (like a copy of the death certificate) so they know you're not lying and take your final later. Funerals are an important part of the grieving process, so if I were you, I wouldn't miss it. You can always retake the class, you cannot have another funeral. I'm very sorry for your loss, OP.

Your professor can't fail you for a university-excused absence. Show him the obit/funeral schedule and ask if you can take it early. As another poster said, if he refuses absolutely take it up the chain of command. I'm so sorry for your loss, your grandmother must've been a wonderful person :(
