The due date to submit the exam material is indicated on the Program Calendar and is usually at least one week before the scheduled exam date.

The University arranges to produce enough copies of the exam for all students enrolled in the final exam. The copies will be available in a large brown envelop at the office for the teacher or staff proctoring the exam. After proctoring the exam, the teacher should go the Registrar Office in building 12, in order to get a stamp on the envelope containing the exam papers of the students. After that, the teacher keeps the exam papers and correct and grade them. Grades ideally should be submitted one week after the exam date or at least within 2 weeks after the exam date.
If you proctor an exam, please make sure to have all students sign on the exam attendance sheet. Also all students are required to show their students ID card when taking an exam.
