On Ground

Scheduled Exams

UNF's definition of distance learning allows for up to 8 hours of classroom contact in a 3 credit hour course. Instructors can choose to have the class meet only for exams if they work with their department to schedule space and advertise the planned meeting times in advance of course registration. For more information, see the Hybrid and Distance Learning Course Delivery page.

 

Department-Organized Testing

Instructors can make arrangements within their program or department to reserve space in campus computer labs for proctored testing for student able to attend campus.
