If you are scheduled to take an exam in the Whitworth Hall please instead go to the ground floor of University Place at least 20 minutes before the scheduled start of your exam. Marshals will be present to direct you to your new exam location. The start time of your exam will be delayed to account for this disruption, but the duration of your exam will remain unchanged and we will continue to do everything we can to ensure that the action of this small group does not impact you further.
You can see full guidance about how we deal plan and make arrangements for religious observance at:
If you have strict religious requirements that may affect your attendance at examinations arranged centrally, you must complete and return the Examination and Religious Observance form. (Major Christian festivals occur during vacations and are usually avoided by examination periods.)
You should return this form to the Student Services Centre:
Student Services Centre
Burlington Street
Manchester
M13 9PL
The information about your faith is not given to anyone else, or used for any other purpose, or stored on computer.
Every effort will be made to accommodate your legitimate religious requirements, including discussing with your School whether it could make an alternative arrangement for the examination if you give adequate notice.
However, if no reasonable alternative can be found, the University reserves the right to hold examinations on any days and times during examination periods.
If that means you have to miss the examination, you will be required to take it when it is next held. This may involve an interruption of your programme and an extension to your period of study.
