Final exams

Note:

1. All courses running four or five days per week will have their exams according to the first named day.
2. Courses whose meeting times fall within the above class days and times will follow the respective final exam day and time.
3. All double period classes will have their exam according to the first named period.
4. No exams are to be given other than the scheduled time.
5. Changes in final exam times are granted for only three reasons:
   • A student has three or more final exams on the same day. No student is expected to take more than two in-class examinations on a given day.
   • Illness. The illness must be severe enough to require medical treatment and a student may be asked to provide a doctor’s note verifying the illness.
   • A personal or family emergency.

You may go to the registrar's office to obtain a final exam change form or print one from MyNorthwestern.

Final exam change forms must be signed and returned no later than 5:00 p.m. Monday, April 27. Any exceptions to the final exam schedule, other than noted above, must be made by the Vice President for Academic Affairs, upon written request of the student. Exceptions will be made only in cases of illness or personal or family emergency. No exceptions will be made due to work commitments or transportation plans. All transportation plans must be built around the final exam schedule.
