If you have a disability, mental health condition or specific learning difference such as dyslexia, you may be eligible to receive exam arrangements for your exams and timed assessments. These may also be referred to as Additional Exam Recommendations (AERs).

Please note: If your exam arrangements have already been confirmed for the duration of your course, you do not need to do anything further, unless you wish to request a change. To find out what your current exam arrangements are please contact The Student Hub.

Apply for exam arrangements for semester two exams and timed assessments

If you think you are eligible for exam arrangements in semester two, please ?complete this support form and select ‘I want to apply for exam arrangements only’.

Alongside the form, please provide us with supporting information of your disability, such as a GP letter or an educational psychologist report for a specific learning difference. For further examples of supporting information,?please view our ‘help with understanding supporting documentation’ section on our AER SharePoint page.

You must complete the form, with your supporting information by Friday 21 March. We may need to meet with you via a student support appointment to discuss your arrangements. If you contact us after Friday 21 March to request exam arrangements, we will not be able to implement them for the semester two exam period.

We will contact you by Friday 11 April with the outcome of your request for semester two.

Reasonable adjustments
If you require reasonable adjustments in your studies outside of exams, you may wish to select the ‘explore support from Student Disability and Inclusion’ option when completing the form. We can then recommend adjustments to your faculty, where required.
