Degree Requirements & Academic Regulations

Final Exams

Final examinations are required at the option of instructors, who must hold them at the College’s designated time as announced each year. For seniors in their final semester, however, instructors may omit the final examination or designate an alternative assignment.

Aside from special exam administrations for graduating seniors, instructors may not change the date of a final examination without the consent of the Academic Procedures Committee. Academic Procedures Committee approval is also needed to change the final exam time for an individual student.

Students who (a) have three exams in two days, or (b) have a conflict because of a common final that occurs at the same time as another final may make arrangements with an instructor to re-schedule one of their finals, without APC approval.
