Equity Examinations
Curtin University recognises that some students require alternative arrangements for their examinations. This may be due to a disability, a medical condition or a religious reason.
Equity Examinations - for Disability or Medical Reasons
Equity examinations are facilitated each semester for students who have a disability or a medical condition that would disadvantage them should they sit the examination in standard conditions.
For further information regarding Equity Examinations on medical/disability grounds, please contact a Disability Counsellor by phone on +618 9266 7850 or by e-mail at disability@curtin.edu.au.
Students will be required to provide medical documentation to substantiate their condition and to provide advice of unit enrolments. Please ensure that an appointment is made with a Disability Counsellor as early as possible after the draft examination timetable is released, as the deadline for Equity Examination applications is 3 weeks prior to the commencement of the examination period.
Further information is available on the Disability Services website.
Equity Examinations - for Religious Reasons
Students whose religious convictions preclude them from sitting an examination at the scheduled time may apply for an Equity examination based on religious reasons.
Should circumstances warrant an Equity Examination for religious reasons, please contact the Multi-Faith Officer by phone on +618 9266 2900 or via email to arrange an appointment. At the meeting, students will need to provide appropriate documentation from their church or religious group and to provide advice of unit enrolments. Please ensure that the meeting with the Multi-Faith Officer is made as early as possible after the final examination timetable is released as the deadline for equity examination applications is 3 weeks prior to the commencement of the examination period.
Further information is available on the Multi-Faith Services website.
