​

Kindly be informed that the new regulations for postponing any exam starting from the academic year 2011/2012 are:

• Hospitalization (and not clinic centers) due to an emergency medical situation on the exam day, with detailed medical report stamped from the Hospital and certified from the Medical Licensing Department.
• Maternity (15 days after the child birth).
• First degree relative death (3 days maximum before the exam day).
• Car Accidents on the same day of the exam.
• Travelling outside Kuwait due to work or accompanying a first degree relative patient.

Important Notes:

• Student should submit his force majeure excuse within three days of the exam’s convening date.
• Applying for exam postponement does not mean that the application is accepted, since a special committee will study the excuses and decide either to approve or reject it.
• The names that are accepted to do a Make-up exam will be announced on the LMS and on our website two weeks after the examinations period. And this declaration is a formal notification for each student who applied.
• In case the excuse was found valid, letter (I) – Incomplete – shall be entered in the student’s academic record, provided that he has not failed in the Continuous Assessment.  An (I) student shall be permitted to re-sit for the exam on its first subsequent session (note that summer course is considered optional).
• If the student fails to re-sit the exam on its first subsequent session, the letter (I) shall be replaced with (F) – Fail – in his academic record.
• It is strictly forbidden to postpone the postponed exam for any reason.
