Final Examinations

The last week of each semester (fall and spring) is used exclusively for final examinations or other concluding instructional activities in accordance with the official schedule and course syllabi. Final examinations should not be given before the final week, without permission of the Academic Dean.

Students who do not report for a scheduled final examination may be given a failing grade for the examination, based on the instructions found in the instructor’s syllabus. Such guidelines must provide for exceptions in the cases of documented emergencies. In such cases, the student must contact the faculty member within 24 hours of the scheduled exam, and the instructor may require that the make-up be taken within a one-week period. The final exam schedule (fall, spring, and summer) is posted on CCBC's website.
