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@umanitoba.camailto: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:
