How do I apply for special consideration for an exam or assessment item?
The University recognises that during your studies, illness or other special circumstances beyond your control may affect your preparation for or performance in an assessment item or exam. In such situations, where it is a major assessment item or a formal exam that is affected, you must submit an application for special circumstances with supporting documentation. In this new process, the only change for you is that you now complete your application online and then submit your supporting documents (eg medical certificate, statutory declaration, etc) to any of the Student Hubs or via mail (details attached).For further information about the steps to follow when submitting an application please download our Special Circumstances Checklist.
