In-class examinations
For in-class examinations, the responsibility lies with the student to inform their lecturer of their need for exam accommodations and the Disability Office of their exam dates and times should they require supports such as a laptop/Reader Pen, etc. The Disability Office needs to be contacted by the student at least 2 weeks prior to the in-class assessment date.
All hardware, e.g., Laptops/Reading Pens, will be supplied by the Disability Office. Most in-class exams are less than 60 minutes therefore, extra time does not apply.
