About exam scheduling

You can associate a course with a dedicated exam period, such as a final exam. You can then provide students, faculty and others with access to a master listing of all courses and assigned exams so they know the time and place of their exam.

Prerequisites

• The course must be scheduled.

• Configure a default semester for permission groups that will have access to the exam listing. This semester appears selected by default when someone goes to the exam listing page.
