Many University students are chosen to participate in international games or competitions which sometimes are scheduled during the University's examination periods.
If there are any students (both if definitely chosen or if only short-listed) please ask your association to send an official letter to the Registrar indicating when you would be participating in competitions as early as possible and definitely by not later than:
For January session: by 1st November
For May/June session: by 1st March
For September session: by 1st June
If informed by these dates every effort will be made to ensure that examinations do not clash with their athletic commitments.
