Fall 2012 Exam Schedule
We are receiving many inquires about the Fall 2012 Exam Schedule and wanted to post an update for everyone. We are currently in the process of preparing the Exam schedule. As indicated in the Student Handbook on p. 33 “In order to determine conflict, the final examination schedule is published after the 14th day of classes.” This is to allow us to pull the final 14th day class rosters for comparison. It usually takes a couple weeks to complete this task and generate a schedule. Therefore, Fall exam schedules are typically posted around the first of October. Please continue to watch the Law School Announcements and your zip.uakron.edu emails for the release of the fall exam schedule.
