AU's exam centres are located in the Edmonton and Calgary Learning
Centres, in Athabasca,
and at many post-secondary institutions across Canada
(referred to as the Exam
Invigilation Network).
Students who live within 100 km of an exam centre must write their
exam at one of the centres. Students are not required to use the
centre closest to them. Students who live more than 100 km from an
exam centre
may write their exam closer to home provided they arrange for a
volunteer who meets the invigilator guidelines and who is willing
to invigilate
the exam. Exams written at Athabasca University Central are invigilated by
the Office of the Registrar at 9 a.m. or 1 p.m. Monday through
Friday (excluding
public and University holidays).

Grouped Study/e-Class® Courses
Unless a student has obtained professor approval, all students
write the exam coordinated by the grouped-study course instructor
at the same place, date, and
time.

Unwritten Exams–Individualized Study
Occasionally, circumstances arise that prevent a student from writing
the exam on the scheduled write date.
With the permission of the invigilator, you can reschedule the exam write
date. Your new exam date must be scheduled within 5 business days after the
initial
write date and must not extend past your course contract date.
Please note that invigilators are under no obligation to reschedule
your exam and may assess a cancellation and/or rebooking fee.
If you are unable to reschedule within these guidelines, your invigilator
must return the exam to AU. Next, you must reschedule another date with
your invigilator
that does not extend past your course contract date. Then complete and
submit a new Examination Request Form and provide the appropriate multiple
exam
fee.

Late Exams/Holiday Closures
Individualized study students with contract dates ending December
31, 2004, will be allowed to undertake late examination(s) due to
holiday closures.
These students will have until Saturday, January 15, 2005 to complete
their examination(s). Due to University holiday closures, and delivery
timelines, these exams must be requested by Dec. 20, 2004. Exams are not shipped between Christmas Eve and New Year's Day.
This is NOT an extension to the course contract.
All other course work, including assignments and quizzes, must be
completed on or before the course contract end date of December
31, 2004, at which point tutor support will discontinue.
