Evening Preliminary Examinations

Evening examinations may be given on Tuesday and Thursday evenings after 7:30 p.m. Large courses (over 30) may schedule evening exams only with prior permission from the Office of the Dean of Faculty. No permission is required for examinations or make-up examinations involving small numbers of students (under 30) if given on Tuesday and Thursday.

Instructors holding evening examinations are strongly urged to indicate this in syllabi and other course materials and must notify students of the dates of such examinations as early as possible in the semester. Exceptions to the regulations on evening preliminary examinations require permission from the Office of the Dean of Faculty. For additional information, see faculty legislation on Evening Prelim Policy, or contact the Office of the Dean of Faculty: deanoffaculty@cornell.edu.
