The end-of-program exam will also be considered an assignment in the capstone course. The benefit of taking the end-of-program exam is to test the student's knowledge at the time of graduation.

Please refer to the syllabi for the relevant capstone course to know the grading scale for the end-of-program exam.

The end-of-program exams are required, not optional.
