Final Exams
Scheduling of Final Exams
If an instructor requires students to take a Final Examination at a specific time and place, the examination must be administered during the period scheduled by the Office of the University Registrar. An instructor may allow students less than the full examination period to complete a Final Examination but must inform students of the allotted time at least two (2) weeks prior to the start of the Final Examination period (one [1] week prior for Summer Session and Winter Intersession courses).
Take-Home Final Examinations
For take-home Final Examinations, students shall not be required to submit the completed examination before the end of the regularly scheduled Final Examination period for the course.
More Than Two Final Exams Scheduled on the Same Day
Any student with more than two (2) Final Examinations scheduled on the same day shall be entitled to have the Final Examination for the course with the highest course number rescheduled. If the highest course number is shared, the course with the alphabetically first departmental prefix shall be rescheduled. If the highest course number is shared, the course with the alphabetically first departmental prefix shall be rescheduled. The student must notify the Instructor of Record or designee in writing at least two (2) weeks prior to the last class meeting.
If rescheduling one examination creates an additional conflict, the student shall be entitled to further rescheduling during the Final Examination period.
In cases of undue hardship for an individual student, the Instructor of Record may reschedule a Final Examination.
The provisions regarding more than two (2) Final Examinations in one day apply only to courses for which the Office of the University Registrar has published a Final Examination schedule.
Assignments During Finals Week
Instructors shall not require assignments during Finals Week or require homework to be due during Finals Week. Instructors may, however, collect make-up assignments after the last day of classes.
