How do I apply for a deferred exam?

Return to: Campus Central FAQ Home > Exams

If you are unable to attend the final examination due to unexpected and extenuating circumstances such as medical illness, you can apply for a deferred examination.

If you attend the exam and believe that your performance was affected by illness through an accident and/or other special circumstances, you can apply for special consideration. The approval for special consideration is not automatic and must be authorised by the relevant Course Coordinator. If your application has been successful, you may be offered a deferred exam, another assessment or other consideration as decided by the Course Coordinator.

Both of these options have application forms that must be lodged at Campus Central no later than five working days after the examination date.

Please read all of the information on the first page of these forms to ensure you understand what you need to do to be eligible for a deferred examination or special consideration and ensure that all fields are completed and relevant signatures obtained.

Details of when deferred exams will be held can be found on the exams website
