Mid-Term and Final Examinations

Mid-term and final examinations are important evaluative instruments in most Fisk courses. The midterm examination often provides much of the basis for the Instructor's mid-semester report. A written final examination, or equivalent, is required by University policy in all courses yielding academic credit at the undergraduate level. Final examinations are given during a specially scheduled examination period following the end of classes. Students are responsible for arranging any end- of-term work or travel plans in such a way as to avoid conflict with the final examination schedule. Work and travel plans do not constitute reasons to be excused from final examinations.
