All undergraduate degree candidates are required to take a comprehensive examination in their major field of study during one of their last two semesters prior to the completion of degree requirements. Students should check with the Center for Testing, Rm. 201 in Kilpatrick Education Center to determine the type of test, application procedures and deadlines. Students are encouraged to register for the exam the semester before they plan to test. The exit exam is an important part of the student's participation in assessing institutional effectiveness and fostering program improvement.
Some departments require passing scores on the exit exam.
