If you can’t complete an online assessment from home
There are spaces available on campus to complete your online assessment. View the list of locations at your campus.
Assessment clashes
If your Subject Coordinator has scheduled an ‘in house’ assessment, which does not appear on the timetable but is at the same time as a scheduled assessment, you will need to contact your Subject Coordinator to request an alternate time for the ‘in house’ assessment.
If you cannot attend your scheduled assessment you can check if you are eligible to apply for an Alternative Assessment Schedule.
