University of Wisconsin-Milwaukee

May 9 & 11-16, 2020

Optional Exam Time:  7:30 – 9:30 AM, Friday, May 15, 2020.

Based upon a recommendation of the Academic Policy Committee, this optional exam period has been reserved for students with exam conflicts to take one of the conflicting exams.

Conflict: When a combined final examination conflicts with a student’s individual final examination, it is the responsibility of the department giving the combined final examination to offer the combined final examination at another time.

Official Emergency: If the University must declare an official emergency during the final examination period, the exams that are postponed will be rescheduled in the same rooms at the same times on Saturday, May 16, 2020. In the event that more than one day of exams are cancelled, the Office of the Provost will announce plans for rescheduling.

Study Day Policy:  The current iteration of the study day was created as a permanent fixture of the academic calendar via a motion by the Academic Policy Committee in 1987 as part of the 1989-90 academic calendar recommendation.  The motion was approved by faculty senate on 12/17/1987.  See link for more information.

Late Hour (4:30 PM & later) and Saturday Classes: Late hour final examinations will be held at the regular meeting time during the week of final examinations. If the class meets multiple days per week, the final examination will be held on the first day of the meeting pattern.  Saturday classes will hold their final examination on Friday during their regular meeting time.

Combined Final Exams: Combined Final Exams are exams given at the same time for a group of class sections for a course. When a combined final exam conflicts with a student’s individual final exam, it is the responsibility of the department giving the combined final exam to offer it at another time.
