2012 Reassessment Information

If you have failed one or more of your first year modules, you must resit in order to proceed into the second year, unless you have been offered an alternative route by changing your programme of study.

If you have failed one or more of your second year modules. Can I remind you that to proceed to the third year and ultimately qualify for a degree you MUST attempt to pass your failed modules by resitting this August. Full instructions on what you are required to do will be given online. You should note that there is a fee of £30 per Part I module (up to a maximum of £100) and £25 per Part II module (up to a maximum of £100) for all reassessments. The fee applies regardless of whether the resit is in the form of an examination or coursework.

All resit examinations will take place at the University between 20 - 24 August 2012. Please note that second year resit examinations cannot be deferred until your final year.

International Students

International students should note that, in exceptional circumstances, it may be possible to resit examinations in your home country at a British Council office or equivalent. However this needs to be organised well in advance; you must e-mail Heather Harrington in the Student Registry (h.harrington@lancaster.ac.uk) as soon as possible and no later than Friday 20 July 2012 to make the necessary arrangements. Please give the following information in the e-mail; Full Name, Library Card number, modules which are to be resat and the country in which you wish to take your resits. An additional fee of £150 is payable regardless of which country the examination is sat, plus the normal reassessment fee as given above. You will also be responsible for paying a local arrangement fee to the British Council. Please note that there is no guarantee that arrangements can be made for all international students; in previous years it has not been possible to organise exam sittings in certain countries. You are advised to contact the Student Registry if you are unsure as to whether arrangements can be made in your case. These arrangements apply only to international students sitting examinations in their home country; it is not possible for students travelling or working abroad to sit resit examinations overseas.

PLEASE NOTE: You MUST send your request by e-mail and provide all the details stated above. We are unable to process telephone requests and this may slow down our response.
