Procedures regarding Finals Week:

3. No final will be administered before its scheduled time.

4. However, any student scheduled for more than two exams on a given day, or at the same time, will take the exam in the course listed last alphabetically by course prefix during the scheduled exam time.  It will be up to the student and instructor in the course listed last alphabetically to arrange another exam time, if needed.

5. Final exams will be held in the regular classroom in which the course is now being taught.

6. Evening classes will give final exams during the last week beginning the night of Friday, May 2nd, 2008.

7. Instructors will post their schedule for finals week at their office area and communicate their schedule verbally or in printed format to students by Friday, May 2, 2008.

8. If one of the exams cannot be taken due to inclement weather, the exam will be taken at the same scheduled time on the make-up day, Friday, May 2, 2008, or at the discretion of the instructor during the final exam week.

9. All distance education course (ICN, ICTN, Virtual, On-line, FlexNet and/or GSS) final exam dates and times can be found in the course syllabus.
