External Examiner Reports
How many reports do I need to submit each year?
One report is expected for each remit to which you are appointed, to be submitted at the end of the academic year.
When can I submit my report?
You can submit your report as soon as the final Board of Examiners meeting for your remit has concluded.
When is the deadline for submission of annual reports?
External Examiners are requested to submit their report as soon as possible following the Board of Examiners meeting. The deadline for Undergraduate reports is 31 July and for Postgraduate Taught (PGT) reports 31 December each year.
Where and how do I submit my report?
Reports should be submitted using the University’s online report submission system. Access to the online system is granted when you register for a Glasgow Unique Identifier (GUID).
You will receive a registration form with your letter of appointment. When you return the registration form, an email will be sent to you with full instructions on how to register for a GUID and how to access the online system.
The online External Examiner system is available here: https://frontdoor.spa.gla.ac.uk/examiners

What happens if I do not submit my External Examiner report?
Reminders are sent out by Academic Policy & Governance for reports not received by the deadline. Fees will only be paid upon receipt of your report.
