Study week at Wayne State refers to the week before final exams where assignments and projects are generally suspended so that students can focus on preparing for their finals. Study week guidelines regarding exams and class projects are observed by all faculty. Only those projects, papers, speeches and other assignments that were delineated in the course outline or given in writing by the end of the eighth week of the semester may be scheduled for completion during study week.
Final exams for semester classes are to be given only on a day designated during final exam week as published in the class schedule. Only make-up or laboratory/practical examinations may be given during study week.
Student requests to take final exams prior to the regularly scheduled time must be approved by the dean or department chair.
