Supplemental Examinations
The pass mark in all courses is 50%. A student who receives a grade of 40% to 49% may be permitted to write a supplemental examination in that course under regulations established by the College of Kinesiology. Formal application for permission to write a supplemental examination for Regular Session courses must be made to the College by May 26. Supplementals will be written in August. Failure to pass the examination at that time will necessitate repeating the course.
Supplemental examinations shall be accorded the same weight as the regular examination in the recalculation of the student's final grade. For calculation of averages, the maximum final grade that a student can obtain as a result of writing a supplemental examination is 50%. No rereads will be granted for supplemental examinations.
Supplemental examinations are not permitted in the Kinesiology Activity (KINA) courses.
Deferred Examinations
Deferred final examinations shall be granted to a student who is absent from a final examination for medical reasons (such as personal illness or injury) or compassionate reasons (such as a death in the family or the illness of a child). Students may apply to the Student Academic Advisor for a deferred examination.
Students should refer to the Academic Schedule at the front of the
Calendar for dates when regular deferred examinations are written.
