I am a freshman at UH who started school yesterday, and I would like to attend my cousin's wedding in Japan on November 10(日), but is it possible to take a day off from college for the wedding?

I think that schools are closed on 11/5 and 11/11 holidays, so I am thinking of leaving after school on 11/1 for 10 nights and 12 days (4 days off from school) or leaving after school on 11/4 for 7 nights and 9 days (3 days off from school). I am thinking about it.

School just started yesterday, but I have to reply to the wedding and I also have to buy plane tickets, so if I can take a day off, is it ok to tell my teacher earlier?

I think you should look at your class schedule and if you are going to miss a day that has a test, quiz, or grade-related homework, you should explain why and ask if you can take it on another day.
If that is not possible, you should think twice because it will affect your grade. If it is an uneventful day, I would be fine with just telling them right before.
Good luck with your college life ！.

If it doesn't conflict with a project or test, you should be fine ？
However, you may only find out about mini-tests and such right before the test, but you need to be prepared to miss some school.
Teachers will be OK with it.
You should ask if you can take the classes you can't take online ？.

I'm sharing this because my child just recently went through a similar situation. There was an event in the mainland U.S. in the middle of the semester, and I had to attend that, so I took a week off.
I properly discussed it with all the professors in the class, and I remember that their reaction was not bad. Some said it was OK if I submitted a formal invitation to the event and did all the homework, while others said that proof was not required but the main prerequisite was to Catch Up on all the classwork to be Missed.
Some classes had tests during that time, but in that case, they put him alone on a different day （ I think they were afraid that other students would leak the information, so the test was moved up ）. It went surprisingly smoothly and cooperatively, probably because I usually tried to communicate with my professors as much as possible. However, it seems that Catch Up of the class contents during the vacation was quite difficult after you returned, but maybe it is not so difficult if you take a break for 3 or 4 days. Good luck ！

Thank you all
I have just started my part-time job, so I apologize for the delay. School has just started and I am still trying to get a grasp of the university system, but I am relieved to know that I may be able to take some time off depending on how I do it. I will ask my cousin to wait until the last minute to respond to my participation and will think it over. Thank you very much.

When I was a junior college student at WA State, I took
4 days off because my brother was getting married in Hawaii. Through Dean in the Office of International Student Affairs, I submitted a
4-day leave of absence form to my department teacher.

The department teacher called me and told me to come to my office
as soon as I returned.
On the day I returned to school, before the class started, I received
all the materials for my absence from school from the department teacher.

If you are an international student, you should talk to the Dean of that office
and make a decision.
