FINAL - Fall Term 2026 Examination Schedule
by Susan Petras 23 Oct '26

23 Oct '26

Hello Dentistry Students. Please note that the Fall 2026 exam schedules are now FINAL. Exams have been scheduled/confirmed in UM Learn. Please be reminded of the policies listed below and seek supports as needed as you enter the stress of end of term. Good luck on all your exams and have a very restful winter break! Susan Susan Petras Student Affairs Coordinator Dr. Gerald Niznick College of Dentistry University of Manitoba Office: P131c, Pathology Bldg. Mail: c/o D113 Dentistry Bldg, 780 Bannatyne Ave. Winnipeg, MB R3E 0W2 [cid:image001.jpg@01DD54C3.30217D80] (204) 789-3484 Susan.Petras(a)umanitoba.ca<mailto:Susan.Petras@umanitoba.ca> Upcoming Absence: Please be reminded of the following College policies (as listed on your course outlines): Deferred/Make-up Exams: Examinations that, due to student absence, must be re-administered at times other than the scheduled period, are highly disruptive to the course sequence. They require the preparation of another examination, scheduling of a testing location, and the assignment of faculty to proctor the exam. The different date has the potential to afford an unfair advantage to a student. The Course Coordinator may, at his/her discretion, choose to alter the format of a re-administered examination to accommodate the above concerns. A re-administered examination may include one or a combination of short answer, essay, or multiple-choice questions, and can be in either oral or written format. Students are expected to write examinations on the scheduled dates. Students with unexcused examination absences will be given a mark of zero ('0') for the exam. To obtain a deferral for an examination, students must give notice of the absence to the Instructor, Course Coordinator, and the Dean's Office (absent(a)umanitoba.ca<mailto:absent@umanitoba.ca>) of the absence prior to the start of the examination. This can be a very stressful time of year. If you need some help in coping with the stress, please contact: STUDENT SERVICES AT BANNATYNE CAMPUS https://umanitoba.ca/student-supports/student-services-bannatyne-campus

Hello, I am forwarding you the invitation from Lisa Mendez, Collaborative Health Care Practice Lead with the Office of Interprofessional Collaboration. This invite is a wonderful opportunity. The invite was sent to Dent 2, 3, and 4 and DH 3 in the Spring 2026. I am bringing it to the top of your email, plus including Dent 1 and DH 2. Still, my apologies for forwarding you the invitation from Lisa at this time. I missed it in my email. Please connect with Lisa at Lisa.Mendez(a)umanitoba.ca<mailto:Lisa.Mendez@umanitoba.ca> if you have any questions. Importantly, you must not miss class, lab, seminars, or clinics scheduled in your respective programs. Please read the email below: From Lisa: Applications are now open for the men's gathering for students who identify as men. It's Sept 30-October 4th; priority will be given to those who can leave by noon on October 2nd (however, leaving later can be accommodated).

Travel, food costs, and a contribution to the camp on our behalf will be covered by the RBC Experiential Learning Travel Fund. If interested, please fill in this form (If you have already been to community with me, just fill in your name and date/time you can travel). Carpooling will be encouraged. Ndinawemaaganag (All my relations) Summer 2026 - Fill out form<https://forms.office.com/r/ZkDAAS6ShJ> Expect to experience some healing ceremonies (sweat lodges, reiki, cedar baths), participate in some fun activities (bow & arrow and moose call competitions), and to learn about health and healing from elders, knowledge keepers and community members. Learners will stay in a rustic cabin (you'll take your own bedding). Food is provided-I anticipate lots of good food like local pickerel, stews, Bannock etc. Please reach out to me if you have any questions: lisa.mendez(a)umanitoba.ca<mailto:lisa.mendez@umanitoba.ca> or 204-583-8841 (cell).
