Students should understand the following:
- Failing to take an exam at the scheduled day/time will result in a grade of zero for that exam unless the student communicates prior to the exam and the absence is deemed excused by the course faculty
- Examples of excused absences include illness and family emergencies.
- Prior to the start of the scheduled exam, students must inform the course faculty if they will be absent for the exam.
- After a discussion with the student, faculty will reschedule the student to take the exam within seven calendar days.
- If the exam is not taken at the time determined by the faculty, a grade of zero will be recorded as the exam’s final grade.
Extenuating circumstances will be reviewed by faculty on an individual basis.
