Final Information

IMPORTANT INFORMATION

~ YOU MUST READ THIS ENTIRE PAGE TO ACCESS YOUR FINAL EXAM INFORMATION ~

Test Accommodation Request Forms for finals were due approximately one month prior to the first scheduled final day.  If you d0 not turn in your requests by this date, you will be placed on a “Wait List.”

Due to the large number of exams to be administered….

Space is extremely limited. The DRC asks that you not reschedule your assigned accommodations.

Students who submitted late accommodation requests were placed with a time and location closest to their request. Therefore, if you cannot find your final on the day you requested, please check the other days before calling the DRC.

In an effort to provide all the prescribed accommodations such as computers, private rooms, readers, scribes, and adaptive software dates and/or times may have been modified. If your assigned date and/or time were modified please inform your professor of the change. If the change does not meet with your professor’s approval please speak with your professor to see if he/she could provide you with an accommodation.

The DRC will be preparing for final exams on Study Day Tuesday behind closed doors.  There will be no exams scheduled or administered on this day nor will the DRC administer final exams the last scheduled day of finals.   This applies to make-up exam day, as well.
