12.6 Missing Exams/Quizzes Policy

• If a student misses an assignment/classwork for an excuse that is acceptable by the instructor, the student must arrange with the instructor to re-sit for the assignment at a suitable time before the final exam
• Failing to Attend a Final Exam
  • A student who misses the final exam of any course will receive an “F” grade for that course.
  • Where there has been a compelling UD-valid reason certified in writing, the student must submit the excuse/report to the Registrar within four working days of the scheduled/missed final exam. Requests beyond four working days will not be considered.
  • In the case of a valid-UD excuse, the student will receive an Incomplete “I” grade, and will be allowed to sit for a makeup exam.
  • Make-up final exams will be administered by the Program/College soonest possible and before the completion of 20 days from the beginning of the following term as scheduled by the RD.
  • All make-up exams will be out of 100% (no deduction or penalty).
  • Only one chance will be given for make-up final exams. If the student fails to attend the make-up exam on the specified date, he/she will be deprived from any further make-up exams even if he/she provides an acceptable excuse. In this case he/she will receive an "F" for that course.
  • The student’s final grade for the “Incomplete” course will be considered as part of the result of the academic semester in which the student registered for the course.
