Please note that special consideration may be granted but is not guaranteed. Take careful note of the specific grounds upon which special consideration may be granted. What if I have a clash between the BFC5916 ST and another unit? If your timetabled test (please refer to Exam timetable tile via my.monash portal) clashes with a lecture or seminar in another unit then you will be required to view the recording for that lecture or seminar via learning capture. If you have a clash with a different class activity, please contact the unit coordinator of the affected class to make an alternative arrangement. Neither of the above circumstances will constitute reasonable grounds for special consideration. Your ST takes precedence over other activities during this designated ST period. What if I have work commitments that clash with BFC5916 ST? Outside work commitments are not sufficient grounds for special consideration. If you do have outside work commitments, you will be required to make arrangements as early as possible so you can attend your timetabled semester test, as you would have been given early notice of this scheduled ST time.
There are many different circumstances, which may give rise to a special consideration application. Such as: short-term serious medical condition. This includes hospital admission, serious injury, severe asthma and severe anxiety or depression. loss or bereavement (for example, death of a close family member). family relationship breakdown. hardship or trauma. This may include: victims of crime; sudden loss of income or employment; or severe disruption to domestic arrangements. obligations to military, jury or emergency services (such as the Country Fire Authority). for students registered with the Elite Student Performer Scheme for student athletes, artists, performers participating in a key event and for students competing in key academic events and programs representing the University. for student carers, where acute illness or other exceptional cause affects the person for whom they care and impacts on the student’s ability to prepare for or perform the assessment. I bring to you attention that special consideration will not be granted for: Managing workload from other units of study; Managing work commitments; Managing activities arising from voluntary representation as a member of a club or society; Misreading the examination timetable; or Information and communications technology-related problems, except where they could not have been prevented, avoided or the effects minimised by reasonable diligence by students.
