- Option 1: Students will take the final exam on day 1 and class will not meet on day 2.
- Option 2: Students will take the final exam on day 2. Faculty may schedule other class activities or give students a study day on day 1.
- Option 3: Students will take part 1 of the final exam on day 1 and part 2 of the final exam on day 2.
16-week classes that meet three time a week - Faculty will choose one of the two options below to meet the needs of their students.
- Option 1: Faculty may hold class all three times during the 16th week to complete class activities and give the final exam.
- Option 2: Faculty must hold class at least two times during the 16th week to complete class activities and give the final exam.
For all other parts of term, students will take the final exam on the last class meeting day.

If a faculty member gives the final exam online, they will still hold class at least once during finals week (Day 1 or Day 2).
