Do you need Alternative Exam Arrangements for Mid- Year Exams?

If yes, and you DO NOT have an Access Plan in place or it is not current, please note that the final date for agreed exam adjustments is Wednesday 19th May 2010. In order to develop your Access Plan you will need to provide appropriate documentation from your treating practitioner and then schedule an appointment with a Disability Adviser in the Learning and Teaching Unit on your campus.
If yes, and you have a CURRENT Access Plan with exam arrangements that have been agreed then this information will be automatically forwarded to the Exams Office and arranged. If you need any changes to your Access Plan or exam adjustments please contact the LTU no later than Wednesday 19th May.

Mental illness @ Uni - A Survey

Do you have a psychotic, mood or anxiety disorder that has been diagnosed by your GP or Psychiatrist?


Have you completed or currently completing at least one course in either study period 2 or 5?
