How do I apply for alternative examination arrangements
To apply for alternative arrangements in your final University of Otago examinations:
- Log in to eVision.
- Check that your examination timetable is visible in your eVision (if it isn't available, you will need to wait until it is).
- Once the examination timetable is available, go to Examinations and Results.
- Open the Other Exams and Results Information to find the Apply Here button.
- Attach appropriate supporting documentation, unless up-to-date documentation is already held on file by Disability Information and Support.
If the paper/s you want to apply for is not selectable in eVision, you need to contact Disability Information and Support: disabilities@otago.ac.nz at least 10 days prior to the exam date. Include in the email:
- Paper code
- Examination date
- Examination start and finish times
- Course co-ordinator's name
- The arrangements you are applying for
