Examinations and Regulations

Each module studied is assessed by a written examination in October (with the exception of the Research Component modules). These have the following style:

  • an ‘Unseen’ paper – this means that you do not know the questions on the paper before the examination begins
  • all papers will be of two hours’ duration
  • examinations are not ‘Open Book’ examinations and you are not permitted to bring hand-written notes, textbooks or other printed materials into the examination room
  • calculators can be used for some modules and information about permitted materials will be stated on the Admission Notice.

Specimen and/or past examination papers are made available for each module on the online learning environment.

Examination entry forms – a University of London requirement

It is essential that you register to take examinations each year by submitting a formal examination entry form to the University of London. CeDEP will assist with information, but it is ultimately the student’s responsibility to ensure that the University of London’s Examination Services are formally notified of your intention to take examinations in October.

Should you have any difficulties finalising or confirming examination entry arrangements, please contact Andrew Freud at the University of London (external.exams@london.ac.uk).

The University does not acknowledge receipt of entry forms

Please note that, unless you provide a prepaid return envelope, the University of London does not acknowledge receipt of entry forms. Should you wish to check receipt of your entry form, please contact your local examination centre in the first instance. If they are unable to help, please then contact Andrew Freud at the University of London. Should you have any difficulties finalising or confirming examination entry arrangements, please contact Andrew Freud at the University of London (external.exams@london.ac.uk).
