Examinations Information
The information below is a selection of the faculty specific examination information. You will find the complete university information on the homepage of Monash University Examinations.
Timetable
The timetable for your examination will be released six weeks before each examination period begins. Examinations are normally scheduled at the same time and location as your classes. An exception is a multiple stream unit in which a joint examination may be scheduled on the standard session time, normally at Clayton Campus. You can find the details in the current Examination Timetable. Your examination timetable is not accessable via WES.
Clash
A clash examination occurs when you have two or more examinations scheduled at the same time or scheduled in different locations with minimal time for transportation. If you have a clash examination you will undertake both examinations in the City Campus under special arrangements. This means that you will sit both examinations on the same day, but you will be required to stay in the venue under supervision over the lunch-time break. You must notify the Program Coordinator at least three weeks before the date you are expecting a clash examination. The Program Coordinator will inform you one week before the clash examination of your arrangements.
Alternative Assessment Arrangements
To be eligible to sit an examination under alternative arrangements, you must be assessed by the Disability Liaison Unit. If you have approved alternative assessment arrangements, you must contact the Program Coordinator three weeks before each examination period in order for your arrangements to be prepared. You should confirm your arrangements with the Program coordinator one week before the examination period.
Format
Any questions regarding the format of examinations, such as what materials you are allowed to bring to an examination, or the type of examination should be directed to your lecturer.
Seating
Examinations held at the City or Clayton campus for JD units do not have allocated seating.
Special Consideration
You may apply for special consideration if your work has been affected by serious illness or other serious cause. You must complete an Application for Special Consideration and provide appropriate evidence and documentation. Documentation can include written statements and statutory declarations, however evidence will only be accepted by professionals who are registered with a professional body, such as social workers, medical practitioners, lawyers and psychologists. Your completed application together with appropriate documentation and evidence must be lodged, in original hard copy, directly to your Program Coordinator no more than 48 hours after the end of the examination period. You will only be notified if more information is required.
Supplementary Examinations
If you have not previously sat a supplementary examination and obtain a mark of between 45 and 50 percent in certain units you may be able to sit for a supplementary examination. If you do so and pass your mark will be capped at 50 percent (Pass).
