The examination schedule attempts to avoid examination conflicts by providing separate examination periods for Tuesday-Thursday lecture classes. Other information about final examinations is listed below:
1. The class final exam period is scheduled based on the meeting time and days configuration listed on the first line of the class entry of the on-line Schedule of Classes (which should be the same as the first printed line for the section on the registered student's schedule on SalukiNet or UniLink). For example, a class section is listed in the Schedule on two lines in the manner:
08:00 - 08:50 T R 09:00 - 10:50 WThe listed starting time for the first line of the entry is "08:00". The meeting days of that first line are "T R", and therefore are in the category "Begins with a T or R ". The Exam Date and Period is by the attached Spring 2004 Final Examination Schedule to be Friday, May 7 at 12:50-02:50 p.m.
2. Classes should plan to hold their final examination in their regularly scheduled classrooms. The space scheduling section of the Office of Records and Registration will forward to departments information relative to the location for examinations for those classes that cannot hold their examinations in their regularly scheduled rooms because of a space conflict. This will be done sufficiently in advance of the final examination days to provide adequate notice for all.
Classes that meet less than the entire semester should hold their exams during the last regular class session prior to final examinations.
It is a policy of the University that no final examination be given prior to the scheduled final examination period, and that students be given their examinations at the designated times. Any deviation from this policy must be approved by the Dean of the College.
3. Students who find they have more than three examinations on one day may petition, and students who have two examinations scheduled at one time should petition their academic dean for approval to take an examination during the make-up examination period on the last day. Provision for such a make-up examination period does not mean that students may decide to miss the scheduled examination time and expect to make it up during this make-up period. This period is to be used only for students whose petitions have been approved by their dean.
4. Students who must miss a final examination may not take an examination before the time scheduled for the class examination. Information relative to the proper grade to be given students who miss a final examination and are not involved in a situation covered in the preceding paragraph will be found in the mimeographed memorandum forwarded to members of the instructional staff at the time they receive the final grade listing for the recording of grades.
5. Individualized Learning Program examinations will be administered at the Division of Continuing Education. Students wishing to sit for an exam must contact the Division of Continuing Education at Washington Square C (536-7751) at least three days in advance in order to reserve a time-slot.
6.Classes with a special exam time.
