8. Special consideration

Students who suffer particular disadvantage or illness during a semester may apply for special consideration. Special consideration applications must be lodged on the Student Information System (SIS) within three working days of the due date of the piece of assessment (usually the exam). All end-of-semester applications for special consideration for economics and commerce subjects are considered by a Faculty committee. Applications must be accompanied by detailed independent supporting documentation on the University of Melbourne Health Care or Appropriate Professional (HCAP) form. Applications lodged without this documentation cannot be considered.

If a special exam is to be awarded (as the outcome of an application) these will usually be held around the time of the release of results and students will receive short notice (minimum 48 hours) of the award of these exams. Advice is usually provided via email to a student's University account and this should be checked regularly if an application for special consideration has been lodged.

Further information about Special consideration can be found in the general information section of this Handbook.
