SUPPLEMENTAL EXAMINATIONS
The privilege of a Supplemental Examination is offered ONLY to undergraduate students registered in courses offered by the Faculties of Education, Engineering, Law and Medicine & Dentistry. The privilege of one supplemental examination is also offered to students in the preliminary year at Brescia University College. Eligibility for a Supplemental Examination will be made in accordance with policies established by the appropriate faculty.
A student will receive either a "pass" or "failed" grade for a course after a Supplemental Examination. A"pass" will give the student credit for the course but will not change the student's sessional average for the year, i.e., although the course grade will be "pass", the average for the year will be calculated using the original mark if that was a passing grade. A failing grade will not be included and the average will be calculated on the remaining courses.
However, a student passing a Supplemental Examination will receive a mark of 50% to be used in the following cases: a) for a graduating average, e.g., if an overall average such as 60% is required by the program on all courses b) for area of concentration averages, e.g., if an overall average such as 60% is required by the program on all senior courses for an area of concentration c) for scholarship/award/prize calculations.
Fees, as approved by the Board of Governors, are due and payable within two weeks of the approval of the Supplemental Examination. The student's Dean will ensure that candidates are aware of this requirement.
