Final Exams

The University Registrar's Office manages final exam schedules for all programs except Tepper School of Business graduate courses and Heinz College graduate courses. We also produce the grading timeline and are responsible for the posting of grades to Student Information Online (SIO).

Final exams occur during the designated final exam days posted on the official Academic Calendar. Generally, the final exam schedule is posted by the sixth week of classes. Students are encouraged to check with their faculty regarding exam dates and times prior to making travel plans. TA graders are expected to fufill grading responsibilites before booking travel.  Leading up to an exam, students should check the schedule often as changes to dates, times and locations may occur. 

Information about final grades is available on the Grading Policy & Options webpage.
