The final examination period for day and evening classes is Monday, Dec. 9, 2024through Sunday, Dec. 15, 2024. Weekend classes, including Friday after 5 p.m., will hold exams during the weekend of Dec. 13-15, 2024, at their regularly scheduled class meeting times. Instructors for short-term courses (courses that don't meet the full term) should be holding their exams during the last class meeting for the course.

The time and date of final examinations are determined by the first class meeting of the week. (NOTE: If a course consists of several elements - lecture, recitation, lab, etc. - the first lecture meeting is considered the first class meeting.) If a class starts at a time not listed in the following Exam Tables, then the starting time on the table that immediately precedes the regularly scheduled starting time that day should be used.
