Notes:
1. If you fail to complete the above by the deadline, some support services, such as special examination arrangements, will not be arranged in that same semester due to the processing time required. Accommodations for the next semester will be arranged as normal. Students with SEN are strongly encouraged to register as soon as possible.
2. Please see the Specialist's Report Form template for your reference. This form is intended to be an easy-to-follow template form for specialists to fill in, especially for students that are recently diagnosed / needs to have an updated report. It is not compulsory. If you have medical documents that fulfilled the requirement set out in the Guidelines on Documentary Evidence (see above), you do not need to submit this form.
3. If you would like to apply for special timetabling arrangement for your examinations, you must complete the registration procedure and raise your concerns to your case manager by as soon as possible. A deadline is yet to be annouced though it will usually be within the first week of the start of the term. Please note that such request has to be supported by documentary evidence.
