Final Examinations

Instructors shall administer a final examination for each class. Exemptions may be authorized only by the Assistant Superintendent/Vice President of Instructional Services. Individual final examinations, before or after finals week, may be administered to those students who demonstrate need due to extenuating circumstances. The final decision shall rest with the individual instructor. No final may be given after the last day of the semester unless an incomplete grade has been awarded. Final examinations are given according to the Final Examination Schedule in all courses except for laboratory courses in which the instructor may choose any of the meeting hours of the class for examination. Please refer to the Schedule of Classes for semester dates and times. Student activities will not be scheduled during the three days preceding the final examinations schedule. However, classes and instruction continue as usual.
