In this calendar, we highlight Article IV of the Examination Policy - Student Responsibilities

Students must consider and respect other students’ sensibilities such as stress caused by noise, intense scents, etc. Students are also expected to familiarize themselves with all pertinent information regarding examinations and to adhere to the following rules of examination conduct. Students are expected to:

1. Arrive at the examination site on time; 
2. Refrain from any form of communication with other students upon commencement of the examination, unless communication skills are being evaluated;
3. Bring into the examination location only those aids/resources that have been specified by the course instructor;
4. Refrain from bringing cellular phones, personal audio equipment, and other electronic devices into the examination room unless specifically permitted by the course instructor;
5. Refrain from bringing food into the examination room, unless it is medically necessary in which case consumption of food and beverage must be done in a non-disruptive manner;
6. Abide by the Student Code of Conduct and not cheat.

1. No student will be admitted more than 30 minutes after the exam has commenced. No student may leave within the first 30 minutes after the exam has commenced.
2. Those arriving later will be directed to the teaching department to petition for alternative arrangements. Petitions are to be filed with the department no later than the following business day except when medical/emergency circumstances do not permit this deadline to be met. In such cases, the student is responsible to provide appropriate documentation. Such petitions will arise in cases where through emergency, illness, error, or oversight, students have arrived more than 30 minutes late for an examination or have missed the examination entirely.
3. No student is to leave the exam room during the last 15 minutes of an examination.
4. Each student must submit all required exam materials before leaving the exam room.
5. Students may bring into the exam room only those aids/resources that have been specified by the course instructor(s). (To be specified on course outline or by announcement in class at least two weeks before the end of classes.)
6. All coats and bags must be placed in such a manner as to be inaccessible to the student while the examination is in progress. Students should be cautioned in advance against bringing anything of value to the examination room, noting that the university accepts no liability for lost and stolen items. Students should also be reminded that in an emergency (e.g., fire alarm) they might not be able to pick up coats, bags, and other personal belongings.
7. All students must display a valid and relevant student photo-identification card (OneCard) during the course of an examination. In the case of Continuing Education students, a driver’s license or other verifiable form of photo-identification must be provided.
8. In case of a personal emergency of any sort (e.g., illness) students are to inform an invigilator of their circumstance and request assistance or permission to leave the exam room, as circumstances warrant. Only one student will be allowed to use the washroom at a time.
9. Students have a right to ask an invigilator for clarification if aspects of the examination are unclear, but should be aware that invigilators will not answer any question that is deemed to infringe on exam integrity.
10. In the case of externally generated emergencies such as fire alarms, students will, in an orderly manner, follow the directions of the invigilator and evacuate the exam room, and return to the exam room when the emergency has been cleared. All exam materials must be left in the exam room during such emergency. In Continuing Education, examination papers will be collected by the instructor/invigilator. If the exam is to be continued in an alternate exam location, students will go immediately to the assigned alternate exam location.

1. Upon notification from instructor, at least two-weeks prior to examination date, students must immediately ensure that any required resources (e.g., individual accounts on system, specific applications, file space, etc.) are valid and that they can be accessed. 
2. Students will abide by any restrictions established by their School, Department or Graduate Program regarding the use of applications or resources normally available on networked computers such as e-mail, Internet access or data files.
3. Unless explicitly required by the examination instructions, electronic communication is not permitted during the examination or while in the examination room. 
4. If a student is required to leave the examination room, the student must ensure that any work completed or in progress is saved before leaving the room in all but emergencies.
