Please give full information and detail exactly which part(s) of the overall examination the application relates to. A medical note from the students' GP, counsellor or college nurse will be required if the application is being made on medical grounds.
Please note that the Board needs to receive requests no later than three months from the date of the Board's letter if candidates have been formally notified by the Board in writing that they have not been approved for their degree.
