Student Exam & Grading Guide 2019-2020

EXAMINATION POLICIES

If the Dean of Students approves a student’s request to postpone an exam and it is not feasible for the student to take the exam within 30 days of its regular administration or within a reasonable timeframe for grading if shorter, the student will be given an Exam Excusal and the student’s grade will be recorded temporarily as an “X”. A permanent grade of F will be recorded if the student fails to take the next regularly scheduled examination in the course. In situations where it is not feasible for the student to take an examination the next time it is offered after receiving an Exam Excusal, an Academic Associate Dean shall have discretion to determine a resolution. A student who without permission fails to sit for a final examination will receive a grade of F for the course and may be dismissed. No record will be made or credit given for an unapproved taking of any examination.
