Examination Periods and Venues

5 The examination periods for centrally scheduled examinations can be found here, alongside the date by which you will be notified of your examination timetable.

6 Should any changes be made to these examination periods after the start of the academic year, you will be notified by email.

7 You must ensure that you are available for examinations at any time during these periods, 9am to 9pm, Monday to Friday. Examination dates will not be amended for individual reasons such as holidays, weddings, or job interviews.

8 If you are unable to attend an examination due to ill health or personal issues which are exceptional in nature, you should refer to the Extensions and Exceptional Circumstances Policy and Procedure, and in particular the Exceptional Circumstances (EC) process. You should note that you are required to submit such a request within five working days of the examination. Self-certification can be used to support EC requests for exams (and other time-bound assessments). You should contact your Student Support Adviser for further advice and guidance.

9 You are responsible for checking your examination timetable on MyTimetable. If you have any queries about your examination timetable, please contact Hallam Help.

10 All examinations will take place either online or in person. In person exams will be sat either at the University or an approved external venue. Under exceptional circumstances, examinations may be permitted abroad (see sections 53-56).
