Exam conflicts
As you review the FAS Final Exam Schedule, check to confirm whether you have exam conflicts and need to reschedule your exam. Follow the instructions based on the type of exam conflict you have. You may also need to take action to receive accommodations for disability and health reasons or for religious observance.
Support throughout exams
Exam period can be busy and stressful, but remember that you always have resources and people who can help you – please don’t hesitate to reach out for support.
- Have an adviser, family member, faculty member, staff member, or tutor/proctor in mind whom you can call when things get toughest.
- Harvard College students should reach out to a Resident Dean or First-Year Resident Dean. They can help you figure out your options and solve problems that arise as you near your exam date.
- Ask for help and communicate with faculty and advisers as soon as possible when concerns arise.
Preparing to take your exam
Review policies
- GSAS students should review the GSAS Examination Requirements.
-
Harvard College students should:
- Review the 2023-24 extensions of time policy: If you encounter unexpected difficulties in completing your work, you should consult your Resident Dean. Extensions of time up to the end of the Examination Period may be granted by your instructor, but extensions beyond the Examination Period can be granted only by vote of the Administrative Board.
- Re-read the Honor Code: Remember that it is ok to be unsure about some of your exam answers and that it's ok to not to be able to answer every question.
- Review the Examination Rules: Know what is permitted during your exam.
Check dates
- Review your final exam dates and locations: Do not miss the scheduled time of your exam. Know the dates and locations (they will probably be different from where you have class) and add them to your calendar or planner.
- Re-read the syllabus for each of your courses: Know the deadlines for any final assignments and understand the collaboration policy for the course.
