Deferrals:
In the case of illness documented with an official medical
certificate, a student may write the test at a later date. If
the final exam is missed because of an illness, there is an
official deferral form that must be completed. It is not
acceptable to write either the test or the final exam and
then produce a medical certificate after taking the test.
