Final Exam Time Change
Request
The
final exam schedule is determined by the Registrar and posted
on the Registrar's Office website (www.oberlin.edu/regist)
at the beginning of each semester.
Faculty
may not give final examinations in advance of the exam period
nor at any different time within that period without special
permission from the Office of the Registrar. Individual students
may not take final examinations at other than the scheduled
time—not even in other sections of the same course—without
special permission from the Dean of Studies (for courses in
the College of Arts and Sciences) or the Conservatory Associate
Dean for Student Academic Affairs (for courses in the Conservatory).
Acceptable reasons for a student to request a final exam schedule
change include having two exams scheduled at the same time
or having three exams scheduled in a 24-hour period. Travel
schedules are NOT considered a legitimate
reason to change exam times. Students who are absent from
final exams for legitimate reasons may make up these final
exams upon presentation of a signed form of permission from
the appropriate dean.
If
an instructor gives an out-of-class exam or a final project
in lieu of a final exam, the deadline for submission must
correspond to the time scheduled for the exam. No take-home
exams may be given out before the last day of classes.
Requests
for final exam time changes must be submitted before the officially
scheduled time(s) for the final exam(s).
