Important changes to exams and special consideration 

The University has recently changed their policy around exams and special consideration.
 

If you become sick before your exam starts and your performance will be affected

Do not take your exam. You should apply for special consideration, with evidence, within 3 working days. If this is the first time you have applied for special consideration for this exam, you should be granted a replacement exam.

If you become sick before your exam, and choose to take the exam anyway, you will not be eligible for special consideration.
 

If you become sick during the exam 

If you become sick during the exam, you can still apply for special consideration. Make sure to provide medical evidence.
