Final Exam Policy


Examinations

Final and common examination schedules are published by the Office of the Registrar in advance of examination week. If a student is scheduled for more than two examinations in one day or has a time conflict with common examinations, then the student must report to the Office of the Registrar by an announced deadline to make the necessary adjustments.
