Students may apply for consideration of extenuating circumstances if they reasonably believe that their ability to attend an examination has been adversely affected by the circumstances (i.e., Long-Term Illness/ Short-Term Illness/ Hospitalization/ Bereavement/ Serious Personal or Emotional Circumstances). They should submit the case with supporting evidence to the course-offering faculty as soon as possible but no later than 5 working days of the scheduled date of the affected examination. |
