Exams during a severe weather campus closure

Severe weather can happen unexpectedly and impact your exams. When weather conditions become a concern for the safety of our community, the university may announce a closure at one or more of our campuses and locations.

A severe weather closure means the cancellation of all in-person exams and in-person services or events at the closed campus or location.

All remote exams remain as scheduled.

Essential services remain open, including Special Constables Services, Food Services, Facilities and Assets Management, etc.

If your exam is cancelled it will be moved to Dec. 20, 2024. This is why it’s important that you do not make any commitments, such as vacation plans, during the entire examination period, Dec. 7 – 20, 2024. You’re required to be available for exams during the examination periods of all terms you are registered for.

Some final exams for the same course are scheduled at the same time across all Laurier campuses. If one campus closes while others remain open, this type of exam will be cancelled at all Laurier locations to maintain academic integrity. This means that even if your campus remains open, your exam might still be cancelled if another campus is closed. Communications about campus closures will include details on any affected exams.
