Final Examination Policy and Schedules
Final Examination Policy, 2009-2010
If a final examination of any type is given in a course, it should be given at the time the examination is officially scheduled during the final-examination period. Faculty are expected to meet their class at the scheduled final examination time because this is considered to be part of the required meeting time.
- There are many uniquely scheduled classes that do not meet the parameters of the standard 11 class periods. Courses that meet during the day on a once-a-week schedule (e.g., Monday 1:15-3:45 p.m.) can fit into standard examination periods such as 2:30-5:15 p.m. on Monday. Evening courses will have their examination period during their regular evening class. Saturday classes will meet during their regularly scheduled class times.
- No student should be expected to write more than two (2) final examinations on the same day. Any student who is scheduled for more than two finals on the same day should arrange with his/her instructors to have an alternative examination time prior to the final-examination period. Alternative examination times are available on Thursday and Friday of examination week.
- Courses that conclude in the first 8-week module (on or before October 24 for the fall semester and March 6 for spring semester) should have their final examination on the last day of their regularly scheduled class period. Courses that conclude in the second 8-week module (on or before December 19 in the fall and May 8 in the spring) should have their final examination on the last day of their regularly scheduled class period. Courses that are meeting more than once a week during the eight-week modules will meet for regular class periods and then utilize the last class meeting as the final examination session.
- Final grades will be due to the Registrar's Office by 12 p.m. on Tuesday, December 22 for the fall semester and 12 p.m. on Tuesday, May 11 for the spring semester. Final grade sheets will be distributed prior to final examination week.
- We are providing two different formats of the final-examination week schedule. There are printable table and two-column versions available below for each semester. Please print the version you are most comfortable using with students.
