Diploma assessment and results

At UTS College our specialised curriculum focuses on collaboration and teamwork which means that you will often work with a group to complete projects and assessments. Your assessments will vary depending on your program but could include: group or individual presentations, formal examinations, practical reports, portfolios and weekly quizzes.

You can find all your subject materials including assessments and announcements on Canvas, our Learning Management System at UTS College. It’s also the place where you will submit assessments, complete group work, receive grades, feedback and communicate with your teachers outside of class.

If you have any questions about exam dates, please contact Student Administration on exams@utscollege.edu.au.

There are a number of ways you can get help with your assessments, including:

• Peer Helpers in class
• Peer Tutors
• Learning support workshops.

For more information about the Learning support program workshops and Peer Tutors, email AdvisersDiploma@utscollege.edu.au. Subject coordinators are also available for both weekly drop-in sessions and online help.

If you are unwell when an assessment is due, speak to your teacher in the first instance. You may be able to apply for Special Consideration.

If you are unable to attend the final exam due to illness you may be eligible for a Special Exam.

General dates for tests, quizzes, final exams, result publication, appeals and final stage supplementary exams are set ahead of time. Here are the dates for 2022.

You will be emailed your exam timetable and seat number.

Contact Student Administration on exams@utscollege.edu.au if you are unsure of your subject code or if you have questions regarding your exam timetable. Please check your UTS email account for an updated seat number.

Before the exam period, read your exam timetable carefully. It is your responsibility to be prepared for your exams and to know the time and place of each exam. Please note, misreading or misunderstanding your exam timetable will not be accepted as a reason if you fail to attend an exam.
