EXAMINATIONS: The College issues four sets of examinations in every semester;
a) Assignments which carry 10 marks

c) End of semester examination which carry 60 marks
For assignments, students who fail to show up on the day the assignment is given will be required
to answer to their respective lecturers of the subject in question. Upon the discretion of the said
lecturer, they may or may not be given an assignment to compensate.
For continuous assessment tests, once they are issued, there are no make-up tests. Once a student
does not sit for these tests when they are issued for one reason or the other, they forfeit the 30 marks.
However, special consideration will be given to information that reaches the administration
concerning a student who is critically ill on the day or week of the tests and therefore cannot be able
to sit for these tests upon the day or week they are issued.
For end of semester exams, students who do not sit for these exams for one reason or the other will
be allowed to sit for special exams when they are offered by the college.
Students who are caught in any form of examination irregularities (including but not limited to
cheating, personification) will be discontinued from sitting for remaining exams. If they will have
done any other exams in the same week prior to the irregularities, these exams will also be revoked.
The student will be suspended immediately and upon their return, a date will be set when they will
be offered these exams. If they are involved in another irregularity in the special exams offered,
their studies will be discontinued by the college.
