NWU rules for assessments and examinations
This serves as an important reminder that all students are required to adhere to the official rules for contact invigilated examinations. Failure to comply with these rules will be considered an examination irregularity and may result in severe consequences, including disciplinary action.
Students are required to familiarise themselves with the complete set of rules as outlined in the NWU Rules for Assessments and Examinations.

Students will NOT be required to present their exam hall tickets at the examination venues, as there will be no scanning of exam hall tickets for the upcoming 2025 second-semester examinations.
