Deferring Exam to go to Atlanta?
Recently our team won an invitation to Atlanta through FTC. I am one of the mentors for the team, and very committed to the team's sucess.

The problem is I am currently in University and I have a final exam on the same day. The University I am attending is the University of Waterloo in Waterloo, Ontario, Canada which is a fairly large supporter of FIRST. I was wondering if anyone (particularily from Waterloo) ever deferred an exam to attend a FIRST event, and how to best go about approaching it.

I recently deferred a business midterm to attend a regional event, but the policy on that is far more relaxed.
