University Final Examination Policy

1. Final examinations in all undergraduate courses are discretionary within any given department. If a department chooses to give a final exam, the exam schedule must be followed as printed.
2. All students enrolled in a course having a final examination, including graduating seniors and graduate students, are required to take the exam at the time scheduled.
3. Scheduling a final examination or a test in lieu of a final exam at any other time than the regularly scheduled final exam period is a violation of University policy.
4. A test covering a portion of the semester’s work, which is given in lieu of a final examination, a unit test, must be given in the regularly scheduled examination period.

Courses meeting every day at the same hour and classes meeting for more than one time period will hold examinations according to the time and day of the first scheduled class meeting of the week. For example, a class meeting for the first period on Tuesday and for the first and second period on Thursday will hold its examination at the time scheduled for the first period on the Tuesday, Thursday class listing.

Exceptions to the Examination Policy for an Individual Undergraduate Student

Approval by the appropriate academic dean is required for an individual undergraduate student. The student must first receive written permission from the instructor if he/she is willing to give a make-up exam at a specified time within the exam week. The student must then petition the dean, giving the reason for the requested exception, and supported by the instructor’s written permission. The dean will then notify the instructor in writing if the approval is granted.

Make-up examinations are permitted for an undergraduate student when justified by illness, conflicting examinations, four or more examinations within a twenty-four (24) hour period, or for certain emergencies. Arrangements should by made prior to the scheduled exam.

In case of conflicting examinations, group examinations take precedence over examinations scheduled by class meeting time. In the case of conflicts, which cannot be otherwise resolved, the course listed first in the Directory of Classes takes precedence over a course listed afterward.

Exceptions to the Examination Policy for an Undergraduate Class

No instructor of an undergraduate course may give a final examination at a time other than that which appears in the printed Directory of Classes unless he or she has obtained prior approval from the Undergraduate Policy Committee. Such approval must be requested, in writing, at least three (3) weeks prior to the scheduled final exam. To reschedule a final examination without such approval places the instructor in jeopardy of administrative reprimand by his/her dean and the Vice-President for Academic Affairs.
