Step 1: Petition your Deferred Exam

All appeals for deferred final exams must be directed to the petitions committee in the faculty in which the course is offered (which may not be the faculty you are registered in). Links to Laurier's faculty petition forms can be found below:

Step 2: Complete the ALC Deferred Exam Form

If you intend to use your approved accommodations for a deferred final exam you must complete the ALC Deferred Exam Form.

In the form, be sure to:

a) List your accommodations: Remember to list the accommodations you wish to use for this final exam. These accommodations must be ones you are approved and eligible for.

b) Include your Petition Approval Letter: In order to submit the form, you must attach your petition approval letter. If you are in the process of petitioning, further instructions can be found in the form itself.

Once we have received all of the required information we will enter your request in the system and you will receive an approval email for your deferred final exam.
