Unwritten/multiple exams
Occasionally, circumstances arise that prevent students from writing their examination on the date requested. When the unwritten examination is returned to Athabasca University, and you request to write at a later date, this is called a multiple examination. You may reschedule your examination by completing and submitting an Examination Request Form.
Ensure that your invigilator is able to reschedule to the new write date. Your invigilator may assess a cancellation or rebooking fee; however, they are under no obligation to reschedule a new write date.
Multiple examinations do not apply to supplemental examinations, which are written as requested.
Returning an unwritten/multiple examination
If you are unable to write your examination, it stays in the system for a period of 5 days after the scheduled write date. Although it is expected that an approved invigilator will endeavor to accommodate rescheduling, they are not obligated to reschedule a new write date. Invigilators are under no obligation to accept an exam rebooking request from a student.
Exam rebooking
All re-booked exams must be requested and completed within the completion deadlines. Students writing at an AU-approved invigilator must follow the rules and regulations of the AU-approved invigilator. Students writing with ProctorU must follow the ProctorU rules and regulations.
