General exam instructions onsite

Important reminder:

In case an exam is rescheduled (due to weather conditions, bomb alert, strike, technical issues, etc.), you must remain available throughout the entire examination period as indicated in the general calendar.

To ensure smooth access to the exam rooms, please remember to bring a physical form of identification with you (ID card, passport, driver’s license, or your physical student card). Digital versions of IDs or student cards cannot be accepted for verification. If you arrive without a physical card, you will need to complete an identity verification at the Exam Office (Building 1 – Office 340).

It is imperative that you arrive at least 15 minutes before the start of the examination to comply with academic requirements and ensure the proper conduct of the session.

Before the Exam:

• Ensure that all your exams are listed in your RISE calendar;

• Read the instructions listed in the syllabi of each module as indicated in your WebRise. On the day of the exam, only the instructions written on the paper will apply;

• Arrive at the exam room 15 minutes before the start of each exam;

• You are encouraged to use the restroom prior to the start of the examination. Once the exam has begun, restroom access will be authorized only after the first hour of the exam.

• Students arriving more than 15 minutes late will not be allowed to sit the exam and will be marked absent.

• Present your physical student ID card to the invigilator at the entrance and keep it visible on your table. If you do not have your student card with you, you must present a physical official ID (ID card, passport, or driver’s license).

• RSB calculators will be provided on your exam table on the day of the test. However, we recommend that you bring your own calculator in case the professor allows its use.

Once in the Exam Room:

• Talking during the exam is strictly prohibited.

• Only drinks are allowed during the exam. Food is not permitted.

• In case of inappropriate behavior (exchanges with a third party, insults, impoliteness, etc.), invigilators are authorized to exclude a student from the exam room. Any violation will be recorded in an official statement and transmitted to the administration, which may result in disciplinary action.

• No exchanges of any kind between students are allowed (sharing of materials, etc.).

• Bags, eyeglass cases, mobile phones (turned off), etc., must be deposited (before you take your seat) in the area indicated by the invigilator. Analogical watches must be placed on your table during the exam.

• Earplugs and noise canceling headphones are permitted. You may ask the invigilator if you need some.

• No student will be allowed to leave during the first hour of the exam.

During the Exam:

• Remember to write your student number on all exam copies.

• You are not allowed to leave the exam room before the end of the first hour.

• Only the provided rough paper and exam copies are allowed (white double-sided copies and dividers to be returned to the invigilators). All these documents will be collected by the invigilator at the end of the exam.

• Write only in blue or black ink (not in pencil).

• Unilingual dictionaries (English) are available in the rooms (please ask the invigilators).

• If you need anything, please inform the invigilator by raising your hand.

If you are caught with a phone not in your bag (even if not used)

• You must sign the PV;

• Your exam will be graded 0/100.

After the exam:

• After submitting your answer sheet to the invigilators, remember to sign the attendance sheet before leaving the exam room (no documents will be accepted after signing).

• Don’t forget to return to the invigilators all the documents used during the exam (question paper, rough paper, dividers).

For the smooth conduct of the exam session and in the interest of all, we would like to remind you to adopt a respectful and responsible behavior towards the invigilators, school staff, and your fellow students

We ask you to answer on the white exam paper, as the colored papers are only drafts and will not be submitted to the teacher for grading.

One last information! Don't throw away your student card at the end of your exams! Keep it, you will need it for next year! This way
