Without you knowing the various academic and non-academic activities that will go on in the school, you will not be able to follow up with school activities. It will be as a car without fuel. Find out information on the UVU Academic Calendar 2023-2024 below.
An academic calendar includes the criteria for degrees and programs, course descriptions, and rules and regulations.
The undergraduate (bachelor’s) degree programs at The University of Winnipeg are detailed in the undergraduate academic calendar.
Graduate (master’s) programs have their own dedicated Graduate Studies Academic Calendar.

UVU Academic Calendar 2023-2024
FALL 2023 – GENERAL
REGISTRATION & CLASSES
Final Exam Guidelines
- UVU policy 601 – Classroom Management, requires faculty members to give a final examination / assessment that takes place during exam week.
- The final exam schedule allows for a one-hour and fifty minute block of time for each exam / assessment. This block is based on the combination of regular meeting days and times. In order for this final exam scheduling method to work effectively, many classes will “shift” from their regular day, time and / or location.
- Final exams / assessments are not to be changed from the published schedule for any reason. Doing so creates conflicts for student schedules and for space assignments.
- All supervisory levels should communicate clear expectations to their faculty at the beginning of each semester, and promptly correct any intentional or accidental misunderstandings.
- FULL semester classes advertised and delivered as:
- Face-to-face or Livestream must follow the published final exam schedule when a face-to-face or livestream exam / assessment is planned.
- Online or Individualized are assigned a final exam / assessment by the primary instructor in Canvas during the final exam window / week.
- BLOCK semester (or condensed) classes ––regardless of delivery method–– hold final exams / assessments:
- Block 1: on the last day of class (before block 2 begins).
- Block 2: on the last day of class prior to finals week.
- Canvas closes on the last meet day of each block.
- If a class regularly starts later than 50 minutes after the hour (i.e. 7:55am), then the instructions for the next class start time should be followed (i.e. 8am – 8:50am).
- A faculty member shall, when requested by a student, provide an alternate exam time for a student with more than three final exams on the same day (or two final exams scheduled for the same date and time). Student shall submit a written request in a timely manner for alternate arrangements. Refer to UVU Policy 601.
- By design, Livestream final exams are not held in a classroom. However, if a specific need arises, the instructor (or authorized department scheduler) can request a room from the Academic Scheduling office.
- If an accommodative final exam needs to be administered through UVU Testing Services, the final exam schedule may not apply. Please refer to https://www.uvu.edu/testingservices/ for more information.
- Finals Week schedules are not currently reflected in the 25Live database or Banner. As the regular meet days and times must shift to accommodate the required blocks of time for each final exam, no special events (i.e., meetings, ceremonies, etc.) can be accommodated in academic space during Finals Week.
- It is the Instructor’s responsibility to identify any “same student set” final exam conflicts and report them to the Academic Scheduling Office prior to Finals Week for resolution.
