Frequently Asked Questions

Q: Can I choose the campus where I will take my exams?

A: The time and location of your exam will be provided to you prior to the exam date. However, if you have a legitimate conflict that prevents you from taking the exam at the scheduled time, it may be possible to arrange a make-up exam. With instructor permission and adequate notice, it may also be possible to arrange to take your exam at one of DePaul’s suburban campuses, but these arrangements will be made on a case-by-case basis. Please see your syllabus for your instructor’s policy on make-up exams.
