Tests and Examinations During the Term

Restriction at End of Term

In the Fall/Winter Session, the total value of any test(s) or examination(s) given in the last two weeks of classes in either the Fall or Winter Term must be no more than 20 per cent of the final mark for the course.

Scheduling of Tests

Except where testing is conducted during individual appointments which accommodate the schedules of students (e.g. individual oral interviews in language courses, individually scheduled make-up tests), tests or examinations given during the term must be held within the hours regularly scheduled for the course in question.

Students' Right of Refusal

Students who are asked to write tests or examinations in contravention of the preceding two regulations may refuse to do so without academic penalty; they also have the right to raise the matter with the Chair of the department or the division in which the course is offered, or with the Dean.
