Appeals should be emailed to Assistant Dean and Dean of Students Nayla Bahri for consideration and include the reason for the appeal as well as the exam and course details. If the request for a rescheduled exam is approved, the Office of Student Affairs will make every effort to reschedule your exam during the given exam period, in consultation with the faculty. In some unusual cases, the Office of Student Affairs may arrange for a rescheduled exam to be taken remotely, in consultation with the faculty. In some cases, if the exam cannot be rescheduled during the exam period or offered remotely, students may receive an IN (Incomplete) or AB (Absent from Exam) in the course and must complete the exam (as well as all course requirements) within the following semester. If the required exam is not completed within the following term, an automatic grade of F is awarded in the class. Students who miss exams outside of the parameters and permissions outlined above will be considered as having an unexcused absence from the final exam. |
