All other classes:  Classes that met once a week, and one-credit-hour, week-end and intersession classes should have final exams during the last class session.

The length of exams depends on the number of credit hours of class; no exam should be scheduled for more than three hours. No exam should be scheduled that would create exam conflicts for students.
