For more information, please see our article Support when registering for your exams & accessing your exam timetable
Important to know:
- If there are exams missing on your exam timetable when it's released, or you can see exams you were not expecting, please contact your department or faculty.
- Deadlines for all other submission types (e.g., coursework, essays) will be communicated to you by your department. If you have any queries, please contact your department or faculty.
