    • If your class begins on Wednesday, Thursday or Friday, your instructor will arrange for a final exam time that is agreeable to the students in the class
    • Online faculty need to state a due date during finals week for final submission of tests and assignments during finals week
    Rescheduling Conflicting Final Exams

    If you have finals that conflict, contact your instructor at least two weeks in advance to request your final be rescheduled. Reasons for rescheduling include –

    • You have more than two final exams on the same day
    • If you have a conflict between a 4-5:50 pm final and your evening 5:30 pm class
    Summer Term Final Exams

    Unlike other terms, summer term does not have a stand-alone finals week. Classes meet all of their regularly scheduled times and days during the last week of the term. If an in-class final is given, it is to take place during the last week of classes. Not all classes meet for the same number of weeks. Consult your instructor(s) regarding the last scheduled meeting of any class for which you register.
