Final Exam Schedule - Summer 2008

---

Final Examination Policy

When required, final examinations will be given at the last class meeting or at a time appointed by the instructor.

By action of the Bloomington Faculty Council, the following rules regarding conflicts, absences, and academic ethics apply:

• Conflicts - Students having examination conflicts must report to the dean of the school in which they are enrolled.
  


• More Than Three Final Examinations Scheduled on the Same Day - In the event a student is scheduled to take more than three final examinations on the same day, the student may exercise the following options:
  
  
  1. Take all final examinations as they are scheduled;
     
  
  
  2. Consult with the instructors or departments giving the final examinations to determine if any make-up examination(s) is or can be scheduled. If no make-up examination is available, then the student must notify the instructor or department of the course scheduled for his/her fourth (and additional) final examination of the day. That instructor or that department will then be obligated to adjust the student's final examination schedule, provided the student has notified that instructor or department before the halfway point of the session.
     
  
  
• Absence - Students who anticipate absences from final examinations, or who are absent from final examinations for reasons they did not anticipate, should discuss these absences with their instructors as soon as possible to make arrangements for the satisfaction of course requirements. Instructors may require students who are absent from final examinations to file in the Dean of Students Office (Franklin Hall 108) a written explanation of the absence. The Dean of Students Committee on Absence will review these written explanations and seek additional information, as necessary, before indicating its findings to the instructors involved. The final decision in the dispensation of these matters remains the instructor's.
