It is the general policy in most courses to have several examinations during the semester and a final examination. Supervision of examinations is the responsibility of each college dean. Exceptions to the requirement for giving a final examination must be approved by the college dean.
Verifiable emergency circumstances should be recognized by the instructor as a valid reason for a student to reschedule an exam. A student having exams in courses that total nine or more units in one day may request an alternative exam date from one of his/her instructors at least three weeks prior to the last class meeting. If the student and the instructor are unable to agree on rescheduling, the department chairperson shall negotiate an appropriate solution. Rescheduled exams should be taken during the make-up period. For additional information on rules governing final examinations, consult the SJSU Schedule of Classes.
Graduate students should refer to section on Final Master's Examinations.
