Can an instructor change the day and/or time of a written final examination for an undergraduate course from that officially scheduled by the Registrar?

Under exceptional circumstances, an instructor may request a change to the exam group for a course from that originally scheduled by the Office of the Registrar and published in the Online Schedule of Classes. To do so, s/he should submit this request at least two weeks before the first day of instruction for that semester to the Office of the Registrar and COCI on the COCI variance form in order for COCI to review the request prior to the start of instruction.

This modification to existing policy is intended to ensure fairness for students who have carefully planned the distribution of
