Dear Faculty,

Exams are underway, so I wanted to provide you with some important information and reminders.

Delivery of final exams and papers:

*      You can expect hard copies of completed essay exams to be delivered within one working day of the exam date.  In addition, exams that were submitted electronically may be accessed online via the Faculty Exam/Paper Portal (http://apps.law.georgetown.edu/exams/faculty/).

*      Please note that the Office of the Registrar will be closed to the public on Monday, December 22 and Tuesday, December 23 in order to package, deliver/courier exams and final papers to you before the Law Center closes for the holiday break.

Deferred Exams:

*      Georgetown Law's Exam Deferral Policy allows us to assist students who have supervening circumstances such as illness or serious personal problems during exams.  In order to be fair to all and preserve student anonymity during the exam process, we ask you to refer students to us to determine if they qualify for deferred exams.

*      No Fall 2014 exam will be administered after Tuesday, January 6, 2015.

Fall 2014 Grades Deadlines:

*      Fall 2014 grades deadline is 5:00 pm on Friday, January 16, 2015.  Grades must be submitted by the deadline via MyAccess<https://myaccess.georgetown.edu/>.

*      The University is closed on Monday, January 19, 2015 in observance of the Martin Luther King, Jr. Holiday.  The three-day grace period ends at 9:00 am on Tuesday, January 20, 2015.  The penalty to full-time faculty for grades submitted on January 20 after 9:00 am is $400.  An additional $100 per day will be imposed for each additional day the grades are late.

*      Barring any unforeseen circumstances, first-year grades will be released as a group (i.e. all sections of Con Law I) to first-year students starting on Wednesday, January 21, 2015.

*      Fall 2014 grades deadline for final papers with extension until February 2, 2015:  Monday, March 2, 2015 by 5:00 pm

*      Attached are copies of the Online Grading Instructions for papers and exams, and a copy of the Recommended Curve and Historical Grade Distribution for Fall 2013-Spring 2014.  This information is also available on our Faculty Services website (https://www.law.georgetown.edu/campus-services/registrar/Faculty-Services.cfm).

As a reminder, please do NOT respond to any communications from students until you have submitted your exam grades.  Please refer any such communications to me ([email-masked]).

Please let me know if you have any questions.

Best,
Denise
