Final Exam Scheduling
The final exam schedule is published in accesSPoint by the Office of the Registrar around early-August for fall term and early-December for spring term. Most final exam times are based on the meeting days and start times of a class, with the intent of closely aligning the final exam with the class meeting time.
The chart below is the general guide used to create the final exam schedule. The Office of the Registrar may need to make exceptions due to room availability or other extenuating circumstances. When exceptions occur, the exam schedules of enrolled students will be considered assigning an alternate exam time. Exam times published in accesSPoint are official dates and times. If a published exam time in accesSPoint differs from the chart below, students and instructors should follow the exam time in accesSPoint.
