Automatic re-entry of deferred, discounted or failed examinations
In accordance with the School regulations, students are automatically re-entered on any deferred, discounted or failed courses (including those which are not assessed by written examination) for assessment in the next academic session, with the exception of the re-sit examinations for LLB Intermediate and Part I students which are held in the first full week of September in the same session.
If you have failed more than one unit and cannot progress to the next year of study, you will return to sit these courses as an unregistered student. Unregistered students have access to the library and IT facilities within the School, but not to tuition.
Confirmation of Re-entry
You will receive email confirmation of those courses for which you have been re-entered as follows:
-
For Undergraduates and 9-month Masters students: by the end of February
-
For 12-month Masters students: by the end of March
Further information regarding re-entry will be emailed automatically upon receipt of the appropriate re-entry fee (see below).
If you have not received confirmation of re-entry by the end of the month indicated above, please contact Registry|.
It is your responsibility to ensure that you are re-entered for all required course(s); and you are strongly advised to check your re-entry requirements with your department, including with regard to the appropriate examination, dissertation and course work elements.
If you wish to access the School's library or other facilities, you will need to renew your Student ID card at the Student Services Centre.
Re-entry fees and payment
A fee of £60 is payable for each full unit paper and £35 for each half unit paper to be re-taken. This fee is only payable by those re-sitting the examinations as a second or third attempt and does not apply to those paying full tuition or repeat tuition fees to the School; to courses where permission has been given to defer an assessment; or to those given permission to re-enter an assessment as a first attempt.
Payment of re-entry fees should be made as specified by the deadline in the re-entry confirmation email.
In Lent term, you will be contacted by the Registry team with re-entry and payment instructions. We will not be able to accept payment before this time. Please note the following:
-
If you do not intend to resit all of your failed courses this academic session, you must contact Registry prior to making your fee payment.
-
By making the re-entry payment, you are confirming that you will be re-sitting. If at a later date you decide to not re-sit, defer or are absent for your exam, your payment is non-refundable.
Debtors
Although no official results will be released to debtors, automatic re-entry will still apply.
Contact Credit Control| with any queries regarding a debt to the school.
General Course Re-entry
General Course students are allowed to re-sit examinations at the next possible opportunity as long as you have failed or been absent from the examination with good reason. You are not automatically re-entered, so you must notify Registry| of your intention to re-sit.
Intercollegiate Re-entry
-
Graduate intercollegiate students who need to re-sit their assessments are required to make their own arrangements for re-entry. Students should contact the Student Services Centre for an 'Admission as an Intercollegiate Student' form. The form should be completed and returned to the School before the deadline of 15 January.
-
Undergraduate intercollegiate students required to re-sit their examinations will be automatically re-entered for the examination by the School.
There are no re-entry fees for intercollegiate students.
