However, while it cannot be guaranteed that there will be an examination center in your town, the University does make every effort to minimise travelling distances. It is helpful if you can state where your nearest major town is on the examination registration form. Examinations are usually held in Universities, Colleges or possibly British Consulates. Examinations are held in June and December of each year. The examination registration fee is UK 55, payable in UK sterling.
All details regarding applying for examinations are within the course material.
Each examination lasts three hours. From March 2000, there will be additional examinations in March and August in selected subjects, in selected locations. See Examination Dates for details. You may only take a non-programmable calculator into examinations. If you fail an examination, it is possible to retake it once only.
