Final Exam

Final Exam Wednesday, 8/12 at 5PM EDT
 
* The alternate final exam time is for students having three verified final exams on the scheduled date or for students having a verified final exam at the same time as our scheduled (common) final exam time. It is up to the student to check their MSU final exam schedule. No requests for an alternate exam in this class will be granted if they are made after the alternate final request deadline. Not taking the time to check a final exam schedule prior to the deadline is not a valid reason for taking the final at the alternate time.
