Resit Exams Lists & Special Circumstances

Please examine the resit exams list meticulously. If you find any exams listed that you do not wish to resit or if any exams you wish to resit are missing, please communicate this information via email to the Exams Team at reg.resit@glasgow.ac.uk before Friday, 27 June 2025.

In your email, include the following details:

  • Exam name

In exceptional situations, your School or Research Institute may necessitate a resit examination for a course in which you have already attained an overall course grade of D3 (undergraduate non-Honours) or C3 (PGT). Alternatively, you may receive advice to resit an exam taken in a prior academic session.

If this applies to you, your School will have provided guidance accordingly. In such cases, please reach out to reg.resit@glasgow.ac.uk with the same information noted above before Friday, 27 June 2025.
