The MWF sequence includes classes meeting MWF, MW, MF, daily; or four times per week beginning Monday, except where a combined examination is indicated. The TT sequence includes classes meeting TT, Tu, or Th, or four times per week beginning Tuesday, except where a combined examination is indicated.
The first day of the meeting day sequence should be used when determining the correct final exam time slot. For classes meeting TT, Tuesday would be the first day of the sequence to be used. For M-F classes, Monday would be the first day of the sequence. You cannot select any day of the sequence as this could result in conflicting final exams with other classes.
May Interim, Summer Semester, Summer Sessions I & II and Fall Sessions I & II final exams are to be held on the last day of classes for the term.
Asynchronous online course sections need to make arrangements with students as to when to administer the final exam for the class. It is recommended that all final exams are held during the posted final exam week.
The times indicated in the final examination grid below are for classes beginning at the standard time. Classes that begin at non-standard times (such as MWF 3:30 p.m. or TT 2:00 p.m.) should refer to the immediately preceding standard start time. Thus, a MWF 3:30 class would use MWF 3:00 start time when reading the schedule.
Final Examination Policies
If a class is entirely laboratory, the first hour of meeting determines the examination period. In case of lecture and laboratory, the lecture hour determines the examination period. Examinations are held in classrooms in which the classes regularly meet at the time indicated in the examination schedule. Semester examinations for individual members of a class are not permitted before the time set for the examination.
All final examinations shall be given according to the schedule published in this Schedule of Classes. If a final examination is not given in a class, the class shall meet for regular work at the examination time.
More than two final examinations in any one day of the final examination period shall entitle students to petition their college deans to have the final examination(s) in excess of two in one day shifted to some other day of the final examination period, which is mutually convenient for both the students and the faculty members involved. The deadline date for students to petition for relief from their final examination schedule if they have more than two final examinations in one day is Wednesday, November 4, 2026. Students should petition directly to the dean of the college of their major field.
If the final exam schedule results in conflicts in examination times for students, or if students petition to have examinations shifted because of their having more than two examinations in a single day, the following preference order determines which examinations will retain the time originally scheduled:
- MTH 114, 115, 116, 118, 121, 122, 223, and COM 103 will retain the original exam time.
- The class section with the highest enrollment will have next preference.
- Then, the course with the lowest course number will have preference.
- In some cases, combined examinations may cause conflicts or cause a student to petition for relief from more than two exams in one day. If a student has a conflict because of a combined exam, the instructor with the combined exam must offer the makeup exam.
