Cornerstone Institute Examination Registration

At the beginning of the year, a student indicates on his or her registration form in which modules he or she will be writing examinations. If, however, the student later decides not to write an examination in a module(s), he or she must inform the Student Administration of the faculty concerned accordingly.

Cornerstone Institute Admission to Examinations

1.  A student is admitted to an examination in a module only if he or she has prepared him- or herself satisfactorily through the proper execution of the work, and subject to other faculty stipulations.

2.  In the calculation of the year mark, performance in tests and assignments (tasks) are taken into consideration.

3. It is therefore essential that a student attends classes regularly, writes all tests, and completes all work assignments. A student who, as a result of unforeseen circumstances, is prevented from attending classes, writing tests, or completing assignments on time, should contact the lecturer(s) concerned without delay in order to make alternative arrangements. Neglect to do so could result in admission to the examination being denied.

4. In the event of illness, a valid and acceptable medical certificate must be submitted to the Student Administration concerned, in addition to making arrangements with the lecturer(s) concerned.

5. Students must personally ascertain whether or not they have been admitted to an examination in a particular module.
