Revised Academic Calendar for the Balance of 2021 Academic Year

As a result of the recent suspension of academic activities, the Executive Committee of Senate has approved the following:

 

  1. The standard summative assessments in the School of Science & Technology (for both undergraduate and postgraduate students) scheduled to commence on Monday, 19 July 2021, be rescheduled to commence on Monday, 26 July 2021; and
  2. The standard summative assessments in the School of Health Care Sciences for undergraduate students only scheduled to commence on Monday, 19 July 2021, be rescheduled to commence on Monday, 26 July 2021. However, in the event that a School and the relevant Department decide to proceed with the assessments during the week of 19-21July 2023 for sound academic reasons, the School will communicate the final decision to the affected students at its earliest opportunity.
  3. The above decisions under (1.1 and 1.2) notwithstanding, all other assessments (of both formative and summative nature) in the other three Schools (Medicine, Pharmacy and Oral Health Sciences) for both undergraduate and postgraduate students will take place in line with the already published and agreed upon timetables, which have been communicated to students already by the respective Schools.
