Exceptions may be made with the written approval of the chair, the director, or the dean of the department, non-departmentalized school or college as appropriate. However, a student's final course grade shall be based on a combination of assessments that is at least the equivalent of a comprehensive examination.

No final examination may be given, or equivalent assignment due, during the last week of classes. All in-class final examinations must be held on the date and time listed in this Official Examination Schedule. Out-of-class final examinations or equivalent assessments shall be due on the date and at the time listed in this Official Examination Schedule.

Students whose class schedule requires them to take more than three final examinations on the same day have the right to reschedule examinations so they have no more than three on a given day. The student must take responsibilty for initiating the rescheduling or be responsible for taking the examinations as scheduled. When rescheduling is necessary, the student should first contact the instructor(s) of the class(es). Students who have difficulties rescheduling examinations with their instructors should contact the Dean's Office of their academic program for help. Student wishing to reschedule a final examination under this rule should contact their instructor(s) by the deadline for dropping courses (see Deadlines in this schedule of classes). Students are strongly encouraged to check the final exam schedule before registering for courses. For additional information, see Attendance and Assessment in this schedule of classes.
