Changes to Prerequisite Procedures
Students who fail to meet prerequisites will now be removed from the paper in the next semester which is dependent on that prerequisite. Students must add another paper, re-enrol in the original paper or take some other form of action. If the student re-enrols they are required to complete a change of course form and gain approval from the appropriate course advisor.
Examinations Information
If you need to know anything about final examinations including policies and important dates, exam timetables (once these are set), exam room locations, alternative examination arrangements, special consideration provisions, use of calculators in final exams, and results, please visit the website.
From 2010, the University will no longer post printed personal examination timetables to on-campus students. However Distance Learning Programme students will receive their individual examination details by mail (New Zealand candidates) or email (overseas candidates).
