Deferrals

Exam deferrals are not granted easily.

Do not contact your professor if you need to have an exam deferred. The professor cannot grant an exam deferral. Only the Office of the Registrar can grant a deferral.

You may not indicate to the professor that your exam has been deferred.

Exams are not deferred for travel, vacation, personal or social plans. If you become ill or if there is a death or serious illness in your family, please notify the Office of the Registrar immediately.

A student failing to present himself/herself for an exam must contact the Registrar on the day of the examination and before the exam begins.
