Academic & Student Affairs

The College final exams and projects period is an option for a final student experience at the end of the semester. With the use of various instructional methods and technologies such as online assignments and testing, case-study methods, portfolios, and project-based learning, the last weeks of the semester can include a host of assignment types for the final student experience.

For this reason, please consider the following:

• We count the full semester, including the final student experience, as instructional time.
• Students may have varied types and numbers of assignments due in the last week or two of the semester. When it works for your course delivery plans, please try to spread final assignments and last exams out over time.
• Students may have multiple assignments or exams on the same day. Please continue to help any students in this situation work out assignment due dates that respect these conflicts.
• Managing multiple deadlines is a part of work expectations. However, new students may not have mastered those skills yet, so we ask for your special support of students who are in first-year courses.
