FINAL EXAMS

The final exam schedule for most classes is determined by the class start time and days of the week. The exam schedule can change, so you must confirm your final exam dates and location in myStudentSystem at the end of the first month of each term.

It is your responsibility to know when and where final examinations are scheduled and to arrive on time. You must be available for the entire exam period in case there are changes to your exam schedule. Check the Academic Schedule for exam period start and end dates.
