Final Exam Policy

Final examinations will be given at the times shown in the schedule below. Examinations are not given early. The examination period is preceded by exam preparation days, which give time for conscientious review, study, and synthesis of the semester's work. The preparation and the examination periods are firmly scheduled parts of the semester; you must not make plans that interfere with these important academic activities. If illness or other uncontrollable circumstances prevent you from taking an examination at the scheduled time, you are responsible to inform the class instructor as soon as possible. Your instructor may give the grade Incomplete, depending on the circumstances. The incomplete cannot be given unless you and your instructor together prepare a contractual agreement.

Second-block class examinations will be given at the time shown in the schedule. First-block examinations will be given during the last regular class period. In cases where you have conflicting examinations or three or more examinations in one day, individual arrangement for alternative test times may be made by the instructor.

Note to faculty: If an exam hour conflict arises for day classes, please contact the Academic Scheduling Office, B-150 ASB, telephone (801) 422-6557. For evening classes, contact the Evening Classes Office, 211 HCEB, telephone (801) 422-2872.

All evening classes (those beginning at 4:00 p.m. or later) must follow the evening exam schedule to avoid day class conflicts. (If the class begins before 4:00 p.m., use the day class schedule.)

If a class begins after the hour or is scheduled for more than fifty minutes per class period, the final exam period is determined by the beginning hour. For example, a class held from 8:35 to 9:50 must use the 8:00 exam period. A class held from 4:45 to 7:15 must use the 4:00 exam period. No exceptions to this policy will be granted unless approved in writing by the department chair.

Salt Lake Center classes will meet at the regular class times during preparation and final exam days. Final exams for Salt Lake Center classes are conducted during the regular scheduled class time during finals week. Should a conflict arise between the schedules of a Provo class final exam and a Salt Lake Center exam, priority rests with the Provo class. It is the responsibility of the student to make the conflict known to the Salt Lake Center instructor so an alternative time can be arranged.
