It is the responsibility of all students to check the examination timetable. The regulations permit up to six hours of formal examination in any one day. The University defines a clash as two examinations at the same time.  In the unlikely event that you have a clash-or any other query, it should be reported to the School with responsibility for the module(s) immediately.

Special Examination Provision : Please note that if you require special examination provision this must be arranged and approved prior to the start of the examinations.  Please contact the relevant Student Zone for further details.
