Updates to Term 2 exam period
Apr 12: Exam period start date.
Apr 29: Exam period end date.
Because there will be four sessions per day (instead of the customary 3), standard exam duration will be 2.5 hours. All requests in the exam collection period will be set from 3 hours to the new 2.5-hour duration.
Any 3-hour exam will be an exception and limited opportunities for this length of exam sitting are available. These requests must be emailed to academic.scheduling@ubc.ca by January 22, 2021.
UBC Okanagan extends winter break
The UBC Okanagan Senate has approved an adjusted schedule for Winter Term 2, extending the winter break by moving the start of most undergraduate classes from Jan 4 to Jan 11, 2021.
Midterm break will still be Feb 15–19, but classes will now finish on Apr 13 — five days later than scheduled. Final exams will start Apr 16 and continue through Apr 29.
The UBC Okanagan Academic Calendar has been updated with the new schedule, and the online course schedule will also be updated as soon as possible.
