All final examinations must be scheduled by the Registrar except those final examinations which are take-home examinations, oral examinations or terminal projects. Unscheduled examinations, assignments, tests, etc., may not be held by instructors after the last day of classes, i.e., during the study break or the examination period at the end of each term. Any such testing should be conducted by the instructor during the regular class periods before the end of a term. (See paragraph under G. Examinations and Tests for weighting of tests during the last 14 days of lectures.) Common mid-year tests in full courses must be scheduled by the Registrar during the final examination period.
Requests for pre-assignment of examinations to special dates for whatever cause or reason will not be accommodated. Similarly, requests for changes to the dates of scheduled examinations will not be approved. Student votes and petitions to change a scheduled final examination will not be considered as these have been found to result in undue pressure on students not in agreement with an altered examination schedule.
The Examinations Timetable will be published approximately one month after the start of the term and will be available via MyUofC in the online Student Centre and at the Enrolment Services website (http://www.ucalgary.ca/registrar).
