URGENT INFORMATION, UNIVERSITY EXAMINATIONS
Dear Student
The University takes all forms of unfair practice seriously. Unfortunately during the first day of January examinations 3 students were found in possession of notes during examinations. These students now face an allegation of unfair practice.
The penalties imposed on students vary but if you take the risk and are found guilty, the likelihood is that all your marks for the Session will be cancelled i.e. 0% for each module. You might even find that you will be required to withdraw and be disqualified from any further University examinations, particularly if it was your second attempt or if the act was of an extremely serious nature e.g. purchasing an essay, impersonating another student or allowing oneself to be impersonated.
Please ensure that you do not take any unauthorised notes into your examination (even in your pocket of pencil case), if you are unsure of what is permitted please ask your tutor or the Invigilator.
