If the assigned classroom does not accommodate the needs of the faculty, they may request a classroom change:

The Registrar's Office uses an online application during a portion of the Course Scheduling Process for each Fall and Spring term to collect input from faculty about their Course Preferences.
Course Preferences are used to inform the Classroom Assignments Process as well as to set courses up with appropriate registration controls ahead of registration period.
The Registrar's Office coordinates Fixed Exams and Self-Scheduled Exams during Finals Period each Fall and Spring term. Faculty are asked for their Exam Preferences at the beginning of each term.
Check our website for lists of courses with Fixed or Self-Scheduled Exams, exam pickup dates, times and locations. Please email registrar@wellesley.edu if you missed the opportunity to fill out your Exam Preferences.
The registrar's Office will coordinate the dropping off of exam materials (labels and envelopes) to Academic Departments in the week before Exam Period, as well as the pick up of the prepared exam materials from Departments on the morning of the last day of Reading Period.

Students are required to submit Student Evaluation Questionnaires (SEQs) anonymously at the end of each semester to evaluate their experiences in the courses they've taken. Faculty have access to these evaluations. Follow the link for more information.

Each Academic Department has at least one faculty member responsible for reviewing Transfer of Credit requests submitted by students for courses they have taken or plan to take at other institutions.
Students may request a course to count towards college credit only, or towards a Major/Minor or Degree Requirement. They are advised to submit forms and get them reviewed before they register for their courses, if possible.
Faculty should review the Transfer of Credit Guidelines as well as the Transfer of Credit documentation on how to review requests and make sure they check their Queues regularly for new forms.
Departments need to inform Registrar staff when the faculty responsible for reviewing Transfer of Credit requests changes by emailing registrar@wellesley.edu.
