MSAF Help
I will be absent from 2 midterms, one friday night and another one saturday morning. I've used the MSAF last year, but will using it now defer both of these midterms or can the MSAF only defer one at a time? Someone has told me that I should be fine and it simply defers everything in the 5 day period.

1 msaf can defer a variety things within a 1 week period. although if u msaf too much they might start asking questions and such to provide a legit reason. if i recall u only get 1 msaf "free" this year without questions,any after that u better have a legit reason

Also, the MSAF can only be used to defer thing worth less than 30% this year, if your midterm is worth 30% or more, you need a doctor's note

So if you're midterm is dead on 30%, you cannot use MSAF?
