Assessment
It is the responsibility of all students to be familiar with the rules made by council pursuant to statute Regulation 12.2.10, Rules relating to assessment.
Assessment Procedures
Students will be informed during the first two weeks of lectures of the assessment procedures for essays, classwork, tests, and the final examination or other work required. The weightings of assessment components of a subject will be posted on departmental notice boards at the beginning of the academic year. Unless expressly stated otherwise, all examinations and tests will be in written form.
The Faculty's system of grades and marks (which are now used universally in the University) is listed below.

Time Extensions
Students requiring extensions of time to complete coursework must lodge an application with the relevant departmental office. Students are strongly advised not to rely on oral advice that an extension of time is granted.
Plagiarism
Any student who copies from or otherwise uses the answer of any other person engaged in the performance of the same or comparable component of assessment, or permits any other person to copy from or otherwise use his or her answer, shall be deprived of credit for the whole or part of any assessment within that subject and may be subject to disciplinary action.
The University's policy on Plagiarism states that cheating by students in any form is not permitted, and work submitted for assessment purposes must be the independent work of the student concerned (or, where joint work is permitted, of the students concerned).
