Autumn Supplemental Examinations

Students who are eligible are automatically entered for the Autumn Supplemental Examinations in failed/absent module(s). For the academic year 2024-25, an examination re-entry fee is not payable.

All Autumn 2025 repeat Examinations will be held in-person. Supplemental Examination registration can be viewed on your student portal under My Student Admin - Registration Status.

Please note the actual marks achieved in repeat examinations / assessments are normally capped at pass standard. This means that, no matter what mark you achieve a maximum of 40% or 50% (depending on the pass standard of the module) will be used to calculate your overall result for the year. The actual mark will, however, be recorded on your student record. If you had mitigating circumstances which affected your performance in an examination / assessment, you can apply for a waiver of capping of marks. Further information on this process is available on the Mitigation webpage.

Repeat Examination Arrangements for Failed/Absent Modules

ALL FAILED/ABSENT MODULES MUST BE REPEATED (including modules, where the fail mark achieved falls within compensation range as detailed in the Pass and Progression standard within your programme – refer to Marks and Standards.

Please note that the formal written examination paper MUST ALWAYS be repeated (even if this element of the module was passed at a previous sitting).

Details of repeat arrangements for continuous assessment elements are available from the relevant Department(s).
