If you observe Shabbat or any of the Jewish holidays on which you cannot do work such as Rosh Hashanah, Yom Kippur, Succot, or Pesach, and a midterm or final falls on one of these days, you will need to submit a petition. If the faculty accepts your petition (and if it is for religious accommodations they will), then your coursework will may be re-weighted, your test moved, or you will be accommodated in other ways. This is how to file a petition for religious accommodations :
Midterms:
1. Open the Engineering Portal and log in
2. Click on "Submit Petition / View Petition Results for Fall Term Work" or "Submit Petition / View Petition Results for Winter Term Work"
3. Fill out the form and they will contact you.
Finals:
If a final exam falls on one of these days, you will need to email the Office of the Registrar, at exams@ecf.utoronto.ca explaining that you have a religious confict and asking what accomodations can be made.
