If circumstances arise close to the exam, please make sure that you notify us within five (5) working days of the exam taking place. If you are absent from any exam for such reasons (i.e. illness, injury, etc.) you will be allowed to sit the exam at the next session at no charge.

Please note that we require supporting documentation for all applications and that all applications are treated in strict confidence.
