Sitting exams with special conditions

Whether your exams are held on campus or online, Assessment Services will organise your approved special conditions automatically, you do not have to do anything.

If you have approved special conditions for your end of semester exams, your exam timetable may not yet fully reflect all your scheduled exams. This is due to the ongoing process of organising and scheduling your exams to ensure all your approved accommodations are in place. You are still able to view your exam date, time and mode on the full timetable here.

If you have been approved for extra time during your exams, this will be reflected on your timetable by Friday 16th May.

Your exam room details will be released the evening before each exam. You will receive a text notification with this information. Please ensure that your contact information is up to date to avoid missing important notifications.

If you have applied for late or temporary special conditions, these changes will not be reflected in the system immediately. Please contact specialexams@auckland.ac.nz if you have any concerns.

How does a reader/writer work with online exams?

Assessment Services will organise an experienced supervisor to write/read for you on the day of your exam. If your exam mode is Exam mode A or Exam mode B, we accomplish this by zoom and google docs. Assessment Services will be in touch with you to arrange this and give further instructions.
