In appreciation of the time required to prepare for final examinations, no other examinations, portfolio reviews, critiques or juries shall be scheduled within four days of the final examination of the same course. Instructors shall never exert or submit to pressures to move an examination so that people can leave earlier nor pressure students to take an examination on a reading day or weekend preceding examinations. No student is required to take more than two scheduled examinations that start within a 24-hour period. A student who has more than two examinations scheduled within a 24-hour period or has two examinations scheduled at the same time should contact first the instructor of the course for assistance in resolving conflicts. If the problem cannot be resolved by that means, the student should contact the associate dean of his or her home college.
Instructors reserve the right to require attendance within a specific time period.
Students who miss an examination with a reasonable excuse and wish to petition for a make-up final examination should check with the instructor. Instructors are encouraged to include late arrival policy and make-up exam policy in the course syllabus. Any student shall be permitted to review his or her corrected, graded final examination in the presence of an instructor or a teaching assistant. Any controversy arising from this review shall be dealt with in accordance with the university procedure for the appeal of grades and academic actions . A final examination which is not returned to a student will be kept available for a year for review.
