Deferred Standing Agreement - Academic Services

This form is used to defer the date of a final exam or a final assignment.

Requests for deferred standing may not be successful

The professor and the student should arrange a date for the student to write the missed exam or submit the remaining workload.
The student must have supporting documents for the reason of deferral.
- Supporting documents can include the Attending Physician’s Statement, the Counsellor’s Statement, or a letter from other appropriate University offices.

Senate policy states: “normally requests for deferred standing must be communicated within one week following a missed examination or the last day to submit course work”. The period during which the University is officially closed for December holidays and statutory holidays is not counted in the determination of deadline days.

If a student misses the deadline for submitting a completed Final Exam/Assignment Deferred Agreement form, or if a course director does not agree to consider requests for deferred standing, students should meet with an advisor, either by attending drop-in sessions, or by making an appointment, to discuss petitioning for deferred standing.
