Examinations and quizzes are given at regular intervals each semester.  These tests, along with other requirements as set forth by the instructor, determine the final course grade reported to the Academic Dean.  Final examinations during scheduled times close the work at the end of each semester.  No student shall be excused from the final examination.  An unexcused absence from the final examination automatically results in failure of the course. Students who willfully miss an appointed test shall take a make-up test at the discretion of the instructor.
