Deferred and supplementary examinations

Deferred examinations

A student may be permitted to sit for a deferred (special) examination where illness or other serious cause has:

• prevented the student from taking all or part of a examination or
• gravely affected performance in an examination or work during the year

Deferred examinations are an outcome of a special consideration application.

Supplementary examinations

From 2008 there will be no supplementary examinations for all Faculty of Pharmacy and Pharmaceutical Sciences undergraduate courses.
