Everything you need to know about your exams — when they will be, how to prepare, and what to do on exam day.
How exams will run in Semester 2
In light of the Victorian Government’s ongoing response to COVID-19, Semester 2 examinations from Monday 9 November to Friday 27 November will be held online. For specific content and exam format information for each of your subjects, please refer to your LMS subject site or ask your Subject Coordinator. Some specialist subjects or those with a practical or in-person component might have different exam arrangements in place.
Subject to government restrictions, the University hopes to be able to offer a limited number of spaces on campus for students to sit their examinations should they not have access to a safe space.
