Faculty Responsibilities
  • To help provide for less congested final examination experiences for the students, a final may not be scheduled to occur before the designated final examination period.  Faculty may not schedule a final exam to take place on or before the last day of class for the semester.
  • Take-home and on-line exams (and other such projects given in place of a final exam) may not have due dates/times earlier than the designated final examination period.
  • Performance exams may be handled at the discretion of the instructor.
  • The date, time, and type of final examination to be required must be specified in the syllabi.
  • University-sponsored events requiring students to miss any part of the final examination schedule must be approved by the Provost/Senior Vice President for Academic Affairs and the full faculty informed in advance. 
  • Exceptions to policies governing final examinations require the approval of the Provost/Senior Vice President for Academic Affairs and the appropriate college dean and department chair/assistant dean, and must be included in the course syllabus at the beginning of the semester.
