Multiple Exam Policy

Students are expected to take no more than two final exams in any one day. If a student has three exams scheduled in one day and one of these is a common exam, it is the responsibility of the instructor holding the common exam to give a make-up exam.

If a student has three regularly scheduled exams (this can occur if the student is taking a course that meets at 4:00 p.m. or later), the instructor teaching the course outside of the standard time blocks (8:00 a.m.–4:00 p.m.) should provide a make-up exam.

If a student has two exams scheduled at the same time, the instructor teaching the course that meets later in the week during the semester should provide a make-up exam (for example, if a student is enrolled in a course that meets on Mondays from 4:30–6:50, and is additionally enrolled in a course that meets on Wednesdays from 4:30–6:50, the instructor of the Wednesday course should provide the make-up exam).

Note: a student may elect to take all three exams as scheduled; it is up to the student to inquire with their instructors regarding the rescheduling of their exams.

If a student has a conflict between a common exam and a regularly scheduled late afternoon or evening course exam, the responsibility for a make-up lies with the instructor offering the common exam.
