Final exam schedule

Fall 2024

The final exam period will take place from Saturday, December 7, through Friday, December 20, 2024.

For the Fall 2024 term, approved face-to-face classes will have the option to offer a final exam either online or on-campus/face-to-face. For online courses, final exams must be delivered online.

Scheduling notes

The exam schedule only includes courses that are scheduled by the Office of the Registrar and Enrolment Management during the official exam period.

  • Instructors are responsible for informing students of any changes made after the finalized exam schedule has been posted.
  • Due to the mix of both online and face-to-face delivery of exams, the schedule includes limited details on exam formats. It is the instructor's responsibility to provide students with details on how the exam will be delivered.
  • Start times are only provided for synchronous timed exams (face-to-face and timed online). For all other exams, please speak to your instructor for details on when your exam will begin.
  • Both start and end dates are listed for all multi-day exams and some flexibly timed exams. If no end date is listed for a flexibly timed exam, the exam duration is less than one day.

Speak to your instructor if you have any questions about your exam.

Face-to-face exams

  • Before the exam begins, you will be required to show your UVic ONECard to confirm your identity.

  • You may only use materials and equipment (e.g. calculators, translators) that are authorized in advance by the instructor in charge of the course.
  • You can bring food and drink to consume during the exam, but containers must have had all labels removed prior to entering the exam environment.
  • Your mobile phone and other devices must be turned off and left with your personal belongings at the location instructed.
  • All materials, equipment and containers are subject to inspection.

  • During an exam, all students must leave their personal belongings in a designated location in the exam environment. This location is monitored, but theft is still a possibility.
  • To reduce the risk of theft, we recommend that you not bring items of value with you unless absolutely necessary.
  • The university is not responsible for the loss or theft of any personal belongings while on campus.
