Final Examinations
All final examination periods are to be scheduled for 150 minutes in length.
Instructors who decide not to conduct a final examination or similar capstone exercise during finals week should notify their appropriate unit leader prior to the start of the academic semester or term. The deadline for final assignment submissions must be the end of the official final exam period.
Any student who is unable to attend the official final examination period must request alternative arrangements before the midpoint of the course or as soon as possible if unexpected circumstances arise. Approval of the request is at the instructor's discretion.
A student scheduled for three or more final examinations for one day, may request rescheduling of one or more exams, as appropriate. The student must notify their instructors before the midpoint of the course. If the parties involved cannot find a mutually agreeable time and place, the appropriate dean's office(s) will negotiate a rescheduling of the exam periods. Any student who fails to request a time change by the mid-semester deadline must complete all finals as scheduled.
Examinations are conducted in the same classroom used throughout the semester unless previous arrangements are made with the appropriate dean's office and the Academic Scheduling in the Office of the Registrar.
Faculty must alert students to changes in the final examination times or locations no later than the midpoint of the course.
