Failure for non-attendance
A expressão, conforme acima, é a geralmente usada por universidades e ginásios americanos.
Alternativamente, encontram-se alguns documentos onde consta: "Failed for non-attendance," mas esta expressão, que inclui "failed" é evitada, porque personaliza o fato. "Failure," ao contrário, é impessoal.

failure in attendance
I think this is what it means, that the student could not pass a subject for not attending classes

Failed due to absence
I believe "failed due to absence" sounds better because in fact the student is not failing foor attending the class, but for being absent. I believe it is pretty clear that way. I would put it like this: FA= Failed due to Absence.
Good Luck!
