EXAMINATION RULES FOR EXAMINATION CANDIDATES

At Molde University College

  1. It is assumed that candidates taking examinations know the laws, guidelines and regulations concerning the administration of examinations. This information can be found on the College web page under "Examensinfo":
    • Laws pertaining to universities and university colleges
    • Guidelines pertaining to examinations at Molde University College
    • Rules for examination candidates

Candidates who do not abide by the laws, guidelines and regulations can be excluded from the examination.

  1. The time of the examination and the use of authorized accessories (dictionaries, calculators, etc.) will be announced before the examination on Arena, in the course description and the syllabus.
  1. A candidate will not be allowed to take the examination without showing valid student identification or other valid proof of identification.
  1. Candidates must be present no later than 15 minutes before the examination begins. Candidates can only have paper, pens/pencils, authorized accessories such as a dictionary, calculator, etc., and food on their desks. Everything else should be stored in the place provided. Mobil telephones must be turned off and put away. If it is necessary to wear a jacket or coat, the pockets must be emptied in front of the monitor.
  1. Nothing must be written before the examination begins.
  1. After the examination has been handed out, candidates must remain in the room for at least 30 minutes.
  1. It is the responsibility of all candidates to remain quiet after the examination has been handed out. Candidates must not communicate with each other and all inquiries should be made to the monitors. A candidate can only leave his/her place during the examination if accompanied by a monitor. A monitor can only escort one candidate at a time from the room, even though the candidates may be taking examinations in different subjects.
  1. Cheating, or attempts to cheat, will be reported to the Student Office by those responsible for examinations. The College will evaluate each case of cheating or attempts to cheat.
  1. If a candidate wishes to withdraw from the examination, the request should be made in writing and signed by the candidate.
  1. A candidate who is sick on the day of the examination, or becomes ill during the examination, must see a doctor. A doctor's excuse must be submitted to the Student Office as soon as possible.

Candidates who become ill during the examination should not hand in their examination answers. If the answer sheets are handed in, the answers will be evaluated and a doctor's statement cannot nullify the grade.

  1. Answers to the examination are written on paper with a carbon copy. A blue or black ballpoint pen that produces a good carbon copy must be used. Do not lay another answer sheet on top of the one that has been completed because the writing will appear on all the carbon copies. Write the date, candidate number, course number and page number on each answer sheet.

The two cover sheets must be completed with the date, student number, course number and total number of answer sheets. The work must stop when the examination period is over - no more writing is allowed. The answer sheets are separated into three sets. The blue set belongs to the candidate. The white and yellow sets are separated and placed in separate cover sheets. Both cover sheets must be completed with date, candidate number, course number and total number of answer sheets.

If a candidate does not manage to complete the final copy of the examination questions, the candidate can submit the draft copy as part of the answer. These rough drafts must be numbered just as the finished answer sheets (white copy). It is up to the censor to determine how to evaluate them.

  1. After the examination time has expired, the candidate must stop writing.

Separating the carbon copy from the original and sorting can be continued up to 15 minutes after the ordinary examination time has ended.

The candidate should notify the monitor when the examination has been completed. The candidate will remain seated until all the answer sheets are checked and the student identification has been returned. Once the answer sheets have been handed in they cannot be returned to the candidate.
