Each department should fill out the form for all undergraduate and graduate courses to which they are department home. If a course does not require a final exam date/time from the Office of the Registrar, or will be scheduling their exam with Distance and Online Education, please indicate that the course will not have a final exam in the "Exam Needs" application.

Final Exam Scheduling Policies

Final Exam Submission Needs Instructions

Important Notes:

  • While examination periods are scheduled for a two hour duration, instructors are not required to use the full two hour period. 
  • If faculty intend to schedule their exam through Distance and Online Education, please indicate "No Exam Assignment Needed" in the Exam Needs tool.

Incomplete and Late Submissions

Please be aware by submitting incomplete or no information, you may be tying up exam resources which are needed by others. If no information is submitted for an undergraduate-level course, a final exam date and time with single seating will be automatically assigned. Please indicate that no exam assignment is needed if the course will not be holding a final exam. 


Faculty Review Period

Faculty will be able to review their final exam assignments before the schedule is published. The faculty review period is Feb. 7–12, 2025.


Professional Colleges

The Carver College of Medicine and the College of Dentistry, Law, and Pharmacy maintain their own final exam schedules and generally do not follow the final exam schedule set by the Office of the Registrar. However, some departments offer courses that allow undergraduate student enrollment. You can request a final exam assignment from the Office of the Registrar for these course sections in order to reduce the likelihood of exam conflicts for undergraduate students. This can potentially help limit the need for makeup final exam arrangements by your instructors.
