Summer 2025 final exams

Summer term does not have a final exam week and University policy states that summer final exams must be scheduled during the regular meeting time of the course on the last day. All required class meetings must be entered in the class scheduling system (CCS). Therefore, the final exam meeting time needs to be included in the class meeting pattern if it is on a different day/time or for extended time beyond the regular meeting.
