Final Exams
All courses are required to meet until the end of the scheduled academic periods defined in the University calendar. Professors are required to hold a final exam or other significant evaluative activity at the scheduled final exam time as outlined in the final exam schedule.
There are no exceptions to these requirements. Faculty members are not to change the time of the final exam, either by changing the date of the exam or by changing the time of the exam. Students must take their final exams at the designated time and place except under extenuating circumstances beyond the students’ control.
In the event that classes are officially cancelled during final exams, the students’ final course grades will be calculated based on the work in the course completed to that point, if 75 percent of the graded work in the class has already been assigned. If 75 percent of the graded work in the class has not been assigned by the time of the final exam, a make-up exam will be scheduled.
