    What did your daughter decide to do? Did she request a reconsideration? Did she get a response?

      I don't know what's worse: asking for a university policy to be broken to accommodate a vacation (and potentially using MS to amplify the request); or having a parent write a research and prepare a letter for a college student.

      Sorry, but that's just how I feel. College is plenty old enough to understand that you can't have your cake and eat it too.

        The only thing that comes to mind would be something like military deployment. Other than that, I've never heard of a college or university allowing a student to take an exam early.

          Still wondering. Semester is likely over now. What did your daughter decide to do?
