Two weeks before the exams for semester and trimester exams, and 5 days before the exams for deferred and supplementary exams, your personal timetable in studentConnect will show the materials your Unit Coordinator has permitted you to bring into the exam.

Unauthorised material cannot be in your pocket, on your person or on your desk or chair in the exam. Instead, turn your phone and any other unauthorised electronic devices off, place the unauthorised items in your bag and place your closed bag under your desk or chair. If you do not have a bag, turn off your phone/electronic device(s) and place it on the floor under your desk or chair along with any other unauthorised items.

If you have an analogue watch, remove it and place it on the desk in front of you. All other watches must be turned off and placed in your closed bag or under your desk or chair.

If you are found to have unauthorised material in an examination, in whatever form, in your pocket, on your person, on your desk or chair, or in your pocket or on your person en route to / from the toilets, the matter is reported, via Student Administration, to your student advising office and disciplinary action is normally taken against you regardless of whether the material has been used at the time it is found.

If you’re unsure about an item or have a question, email the Exams team via askUWA before your exam day.

Be ready early for your exam to ensure you're feeling prepared and can log in to the required platform(s).

If you're up to 60 minutes late for your exam, you can still sit the exam, but you will not be granted extra time.

Students sitting MS Teams exams are required to log on up to 30 minutes before the start of the exam for an ID check and to resolve any technical issues.

If you are more than 60 minutes late for your exam or have misread the timetable and missed your exam, you will not be allowed to sit the exam. If your lateness was due to difficulties beyond your control, you may be eligible to apply for Special Consideration.

Some exams will allow students to use:

• a UWA-approved calculator

Approved calculators

You do not need a sticker on your calculator to sit online exams. Your calculator must not be programmable, display graphics or have any connectivity capability such as Bluetooth.

You must submit a special consideration form to your Student Advising Office within 4 working days of the publication of the exam timetable.  Students who live in a time zone ahead of Australian Western Standard Time (AWST) are required to sit their exam at AWST. If you are unable to sit the exam on the scheduled day or time as you live in a time zone more than two and a half hours behind AWST, you can apply for an exam timetable deviation to sit your exam at a different time during business hours, (8am to 5pm AWST) by submitting a special consideration form to your Student Advising Office.
