5. Additional Notes on Exam Administration

1)  During the exam period, classes other than exams are, in principle, to be conducted in the originally designated format (face-to-face classes in person, and remote classes in real-time or recorded formats)

However, in unavoidable cases-such as conducting make-up classes outside regular class hours or difficulty securing classrooms due to overlapping exam schedules- remote classes may be utilized.

(Even for courses originally scheduled as in-person, make-up classes may be conducted in real-time or recorded online formats)

2)  In accordance with the Higher Education Act and Ministry of Education guidelines, each course must fulfill the legal requirement of 15 weeks of instruction (30 sessions for classes held twice a week, 15 sessions for once a week). Refer to the makeup class guidelines for details.

3)  In-person exams, remote exams, and assignment-based assessments each count as one class session.
