RESCHEDULING OF EXAMS UNDER OTHER CIRCUMSTANCES The University will not normally reschedule exams under other circumstances. Affected students are encouraged to write exams at the next available sitting, subject to the approval of the Registrar. Students who have missed exams should apply to CSAAC/FSAAC which will make the appropriate decisions for students to sit the missed exam at the next available sitting with or without payment. REGISTRATION ON MODULES Students should ensure that they are correctly registered on all modules for which they are attending lectures by checking e:Vision. Failure to do so may result in such students being disallowed from writing examinations for modules for which they might think they are registered. EXAMINATION CARDS Examination cards are colour-coded for easy identification and security purposes. Students should collect exam cards from the University Exams Centre/Main Administration Building, or their College, Faculty or School according to schedule, in the week(s) preceding the start of the examination period. Dates for collecting cards are in the “Significant Dates” section of this booklet and will be posted in Colleges, Faculties and Schools. A fine of $700 is charged for late collection. Students with outstanding financial obligation to the University will not be issued exam cards and will not be allowed to write final examinations without clearing their obligation or obtaining approval from the Finance Office. Lost or misplaced examination cards can be replaced by paying a fee of $200 to Accounts Receivable. Upon payment of this fee and submission of the receipt to the Examinations Centre, a new card will be issued. EXAMINATION RECE IPTS An examination receipt is issued to each student upon his/her submission of an examination script, or other piece of work/assessment, given by a lecturer that will contribute to a module grade.
