If you are late for your exam, go straight to your exam room as soon as possible and explain to the invigilator on duty the reason for your being late.  In some circumstances, it may still be possible for you to sit the exam.

The college is charged by the examination boards for the re-sit.  The amount charged varies from board to board.  There is also a significant amount of work involved in processing the re-sits and this represents a cost to the college which needs to be covered.

• Printing and distribution of resit forms

• Advice from staff on whether resit is appropriate / necessary

• Collection of forms (for which we bring in extra staff)

• Collection of payments (for which we bring in extra staff)

• Processing of forms (again extra staff brought in)

• Courier cash collection and banking costs for large cash/cheque amounts

• Additional insurance costs associated with cash handling

• Cost of postage and envelopes in some cases

• Invoice processing, authorisation and payments for fees levied by the exam boards

• Invoice checking and budget reconciliation for above

• Cost of entering the student for the exam again and all associated administration with an exam entry, timetabling, clash resolution and production of new timetables, statement of entry etc

• Cost of additional set up of an exam place (rooming to sit the exam)

• Cost of additional invigilators/rooms

All students are issued with a paper copy of their Exam Timetable, and this is an official document which you will require to sit the exam(s).  If you lose it, you can print off another copy of your timetable from the Student Portal.

Alternatively, you can get another copy from the Exams Office, but a fee is usually charged for this service.
