Supplementary examinations provide an opportunity for students to improve their standing in a course in which they have attained a failing grade of 5 or 10 marks below the stated pass mark.
For upgrading purposes, in their last semester of studies, students may be given an opportunity to write a supplementary examination for a course in which they have attained the minimum pass mark or five marks above the minimum pass mark. Please consult with your Instructional Coordinator before applying.
The grade attained in a supplementary examination will replace only the grade attained in the final examination for the course in question and will be combined with marks previously attained for term work.
Refunds will be issued ONLY in cases where permission to write a supplementary examination is NOT granted. In cases where students withdraw their application, the fee is not refundable.
Supplementary exams will be written on the first day of the Deferred/Supplementary exam period in the subsequent semester. Some exceptions may apply.
NOTE: If you are an on-campus program student enrolled in on-campus courses, please complete the Application for Supplementary Exam and submit to your campus Student Service's office.
