Exam clashes

When provisional exam timetables have been published, check your timetable carefully to make sure that there are no exam clashes.

An exam clash is when you have two or more exams scheduled for the same time on the same day. If you have two or more exams on the same day but at different times, this would not be an exam clash.

For online timed assessments, you have 24 hours in which to complete and upload your work. You should note that your exam is not expected to take longer to complete than the originally planned time (two or three hours, for example). The 24 hours therefore provides a window of time for you to start, complete and upload separate assessments as required, so two online assessments published to start within the same 24 hour period is not considered a clash.

If you notice any clashes, please contact the Student Centre as soon as possible and within ten working days of the publication of the provisional exam timetable.
