Exams and Results

Exams are held at the end of every study period. Check your course outline to see whether you are required to sit an exam as part of your assessment and what mode it will be. If you have an exam, please be aware of the following:

Exams can be offered in the following modes, but check with your course outline and with your Course Coordinator for full details:
- Non-invigilated online exam in learnonline
- Invigilated online exam in learnonline (with invigilation provided by the RPNow secure browser)
- On-campus face-to-face exam
Your exam can fall anywhere within the official exam period, and as the timetable is subject to change, we strongly recommend you regularly recheck the timetable and ensure you are available for the entire exam period and the secondary exam period (for deferred, special consideration and supplementary exams).
All exams are scheduled in South Australian time and you are required to sit your primary and secondary exam at the scheduled date, time and location irrespective of any conflict with a planned holiday, special event or regular work committment.
