    • You must attend the final exam to earn a grade for the course (including an F grade; if you stopped attending class and miss the final exam you will be assigned a WU grade, which might affect your financial aid in the future).
    • Math department policy: Makeup exams are permitted under exceptional circumstances only such as – jury duty (summons), death in the family (death certificate), or serious illness (medical note) – providing they exhibit proof of documentation. TRAVELING IS NOT A LEGITIMATE EXCUSE. It is the student’s responsibility to change their conflicting travel dates and be present on the day of their final examination. Makeups will NOT be provided to them.
    • Where permitted, makeup exams will be coordinated through the Math Department and Accessibility Center. In the past, these needed to be scheduled ahead of time for a $25 fee.
