    A legitimate absence is not considered an examination attempt. After the deadline for withdrawing has passed, documented illness is the only legitimate reason for being absent from an examination.

    Documentation (the only valid documentation is a fit note/sick note/sickness certificate/”sykmelding”) from a licensed doctor (GP) or specialist must be sent to eksamen@nhh.no the first working day after the examination at the latest. Please specify which examination(s)/course code the absence applies for in the email. The sickness certificate must be dated before or on the day of the examination.

    If you do not attend the examination at the determined time without valid reason for absence, and has not withdrawn from the examination, it will be registered as "not attended". "Not attended" is regarded as an attempt to sit the examination.

  • Re-take exams

    Re-take exams

    Re-take exams are offered the semester after the course was given. It will be specified in the course description if a re-take exam will be offered. Compulsory activities (work requirements) are valid for one semester after the semester they were obtained. 

    The best grade you have achieved will be given as the result on your diploma or transcript, including in cases where you have received a lower grade after re-sitting. If you receive the same grade on your second attempt, the first result will be shown.
