    Anyone know what happens if you defer a repeat or previously deferred exam?
    Do you just sit the exam the next summer, and miss a year?
    Are there fees?
    Any other info?

    Was wondering if anyone would have any further info on this?

    I deferred Christmas exams and due to family issues, i really dont see how there is even a possibility of me passing the repeats in a few days time. My grades have been excellent so far (first class honours). Is there anyway I could sit these exams at Christmas. If so, what are the costs?

    Any help with this would be greatly appreciated.

    Talk to the dean of the faculty.

    Out of interest, can you defer exams for any reason or does it have to be illness/bereavement?

    Whenever I've failed an exam it's been totally expected and if I could have just deferred it and concentrated on others I'd have done much better all round, but I realise the lecturers don't really like you deciding these things yourself...
