The University doesn’t automatically enter students for any Resit Exam / Re-Submission or Repeat Placement. Therefore each student must apply by completing an Application Form or via the Online Store. We will not consider any other type of application.
All examinations must be taken in Aberdeen at the appropriate time. Permission is rarely given for examinations to be taken elsewhere, and only exceptional circumstances are considered. This does not include personal inconvenience or expense.
You can apply to resit an exam; re-submit coursework for assessment; or to undertake a repeat placement for a course.
Only students who hold a valid class certificate for the course to be re-assessed can apply. Class certificates are valid for the academic year the course was attended and the academic year immediately following it. Any queries about the validity of a class certificate should be directed to your Adviser of Studies or the Registry (exams@abdn.ac.uk). During this period a student can have up to three attempts to pass.
If you have failed an exam taken in January, you can resit this first half session exam either in August of the same year or the January or August of the next academic session. You cannot resit the exam in May.
If you have failed an exam taken in May, you can resit this second half session exam either in August of the same year or the May or August of the next academic session. You cannot resit the exam in January.
We accept applications made via a completed Application Form or the Online Store. All Resit Exam applications must be completed and returned to Registry by the following dates:
If you apply after the deadline you will incur a Late Fee of £30.

Please note: The online store will close two weeks before the start of each exam diet. Applications can still be made by submitting the downloadable resit application form to the Infohub or posting the form along with payment to the address on the form.
Re-Submission Deadlines and Repeat Placement - Students should contact the School whereby arrangements will be processed by the School as appropriate.
Exam Timetable
Exam timetables are published at least 4 weeks before the relevant exam diet and will be available on your Student Portal when you have applied and been registered for an exam. We also publish the exam timetable online at www.abdn.ac.uk/registry/exams, and through the Infohub website or can post the exam timetable to you if an A4 stamped addressed envelope is enclosed with the Application Form.
Good Cause or Medical Absence
Students who missed their exam(s), submission deadline(s) or placement(s) due to medical, or other good cause reasons, which has been accepted by their School, must still apply to resit an exam by submitting an Application Form. No Resit Fee will be charged but a Late Fee will be charged for any application received after the appropriate deadline.
Late Applications
Late applications may not always be accepted and are subject to School approval which the student must seek and obtain. Schools are not required to provide an exam for a course with no students registered for the resit exam by the resit exam application deadline. A Late Fee will apply to all applications made after the deadline date.
Fees
Each course applied for costs £20. A Late Fee of £30 will always be charged where an application is received after the deadlines given above. All fees must be paid at the time of application and are non-refundable. Cash should not be sent through the post.
