Exam conflict
and make-up

A final exam conflict exists when, according to the official exam schedule, either

    (i) you have another final at the same time as the Math 132 exam and the five-digit class number of your Math 132 lecture section has a higher last digit than the class number of the other course; or

    (ii) you have 3 finals the same day and the Math 132 exam is the middle one of the three.

In that case:

  • from the Registrar’s Office, 213 Whitmore, obtain written certification of the conflict on a certified copy of your entire final exam schedule; and
     
  • no later than two weeks before the final exam, give your Math 132 instructor the written certification along with the name(s) of the instructor(s) in the course(s) creating the conflict.

Your Math 131 instructor will verify the information—including contacting the instructors of the other courses to confirm that the conflicting exams are actually being given as scheduled.

In due course you will hear from your instructor and/or the course chair about the time and place of the make-up.

The make-up may have to be scheduled as late as the last day of final exams, Thursday, May 22. Should the make-up time also be a conflict, you will need to request an Incomplete and then take a special written make-up exam, prepared by your instructor, at the start of the Fall semester.

Disability accommodation deadline: two weeks before the scheduled final exam.

Old exams

Copies of old final exams are available.
