Examinations

University Policy

Questrom School of Business Policy

Course examinations are given at the discretion of the instructor. Final examinations are required in most courses and are generally given during the scheduled examination period.

A student who is unable to attend an examination should contact the instructor as early as possible prior to the examination to discuss the possibility of alternate arrangements. A student who is absent from an examination may request a makeup examination only if the examination was missed for a serious reason (such as illness or family emergency). Students with family emergencies or illnesses should contact their advisor as soon as possible so that instructors can be notified. Please be aware that special or makeup examinations will not be scheduled to accommodate a student’s travel plans.

Final examinations are generally administered according to the official final examination schedule determined by the University Registrar’s office and posted on MyBU Student. Scheduling conflicts regarding final examinations should be brought to the attention of the student’s advisor.
