Types of assessment

Assessments at the University take many forms but in terms of exceptional circumstances, they fall broadly into three categories:

  1. Deadline assessments – assessments not taken under controlled and timed conditions such as essays, assignments and placements.
  2. Non-examined event assessments - assessments taken under controlled and timed conditions such as, tests and presentations. These are not formal university examinations.
  3. Examined event assessments – formally examined assessments taken under controlled and timed conditions such as exams.
