Excused Absences for Final Assessments

Students who are unable to take their final assessment (including, but not limited to, written or oral exam, project, presentation, written report/paper) for legitimate reasons and wish to request a make-up generally must obtain advance authorization from the instructing faculty members and Student Affairs. In the event that advance authorization cannot be obtained due to extenuating circumstances, students should contact Student Affairs and the instructor(s) as soon as they are able.

If the assessment is not completed prior to the end of the grading period, a grade of I, Incomplete, will be recorded on the student record. An incomplete grade is a temporary grade that does not affect a grade point average.
