Academic Regulations Governing "End-of-Semester" Examinations

 

The academic regulations governing "end-of-semester" examinations and activities are as follows:

 

The final examination period is intended for the end-of-semester examination.  No examination or quiz may be given during the week (three days in summer session) preceding the final examination period of the semester (examinations for laboratory, intensive, or mini-courses excluded).  It will be the responsibility of the department head, or where appropriate the school head, to ensure that none of the departmental or school faculty uses the week (three days in summer session) preceding the final examination period to administer an examination.

 

Students scheduled for more than two [final] examinations in one calendar day are entitled to reschedule any examinations in excess of two.  Similarly, the students faced with a direct exam conflict are entitled to reschedule either examination.  It is the responsibility of the student to make the necessary arrangements [with the instructor for rescheduling his/her individual examination] before the last week of regularly scheduled classes.  Course instructors shall not penalize a student who chooses to reschedule an examination under these options.

 

University regulations on the intended use of incomplete grades and the procedure for filing a Registrar’s Form 60 with the department when an incomplete grade is assigned state:

 

A grade of incomplete is record of work that was interrupted by unavoidable absence or other causes beyond a student’s control, which work was passing at the time it was interrupted and the completion of which does not require the student to repeat the course in order to obtain credit.  The incomplete grade is not to be used as a substitute for a failing grade.

 

When an instructor reports a grade of incomplete, he/she shall file in the departmental office Registrar’s Form 60 stating reasons for the grade and what is required of the student to achieve a permanent grade.
