This message provides guidance for administering makeup exams for courses whose exams were originally scheduled for December 19-22, 2021.

This message describes the grade submission process for students in Fall 2021 courses for which instructors provided the option to waive the final exam and base the final grade on work submitted during the semester. Students may either accept the grade, request an ABX and take a make-up exam, or convert the grade to CR. If students wish to convert the grade to CR, instructor approval is required. The process for approving CR requests is outlined below.

This message outlines follow-up measures implemented in response to the shift to remote final exams announced on December 18. As you know from President Peter Salovey and Provost Scott Strobel’s message titled “Update on plans for the spring semester,” within the FAS, the week of January 18 through January 21 will be used exclusively for undergraduate ABX exams. All ABX exams will be administered remotely; proctoring support will be available. Faculty who require TFs to administer remote exams are asked to complete this survey by January 10. The Spring 2022 term will begin on Tuesday, January 25. Classes will be held remotely from January 25 – February 4. To make up for the delayed start to the term, spring recess will begin at 5:00 PM on Friday, March 18 and classes will resume on Monday, March 28 at 8:20 AM. Further details on exam schedules and grading can be found below.

This message informs instructors that any Yale College and GSAS final exams that take place on or after Sunday (tomorrow) will need to be offered remotely. Instructors are encouraged to accommodate students; the options at your disposal are outlined below. The Poorvu Center has developed guidance on remote exam proctoring and can provide remote proctors upon request.
