University Of Canterbury Exam Timetable

The Examination Timetable for the Mid-year Examination Period was released to students on Monday 4 May 2020. 



Each student should have received a personal e-mail which lists all the student’s examinations, tests and assignments that are allocated into the Mid-year Examination Period. It may not include assignments that were given out during Term 2 with submission during the Examination Period.
