3.6 Assessment
A. Missed Components of Term Work

Any student who is absent from a test or fails to complete a laboratory assignment or similar work for legitimate reasons must discuss an alternative course of action with the instructor. The regulations covering such circumstances are outlined in the sections titled E.3 Attendance and G.7 Deferral of Term Work in the Academic Regulations section of this Calendar. Notification of such eventualities must be given to the instructor within 48 hours.

B. Deferral of Final Examinations

See G.6 in Academic Regulations for the general University regulations governing the deferral of final examinations.

In order to apply for a deferral of a final examination in a course taught by the Faculty of Science, students must pick up an application form at the Enrolment Services or download it from the Registrar's Website at and submit the completed form to the Associate Dean (Undergraduate Advising) in the Student Success Centre. Students seeking a deferment of a final examination for medical reasons must accompany the application form with a completed Physician/Counsellor Statement form, which may be obtained from the Office of the Registrar or may be downloaded from the Registrar's Website. A medical certificate stating only that a student was seen by a physician is insufficient. Students are warned that trivial medical excuses also are insufficient and that their record of applications for previous medical deferrals will be checked when deferred privileges are applied for. Medical documentation that does not coincide precisely with the examination(s) missed will not be accepted.

Misreading the examination timetable is not a valid reason for requesting a deferred final examination.

In the event of foreseeable absence from a final examination, an application for a deferral must be made prior to the examination. In the event of an unforeseen need to be absent from such an examination, the Associate Dean (Undergraduate Advising) should be notified as soon as possible and application made within 48 hours of the examination. Applications made after the deadlines printed in the Calendar will not be considered.
