Exam locations
We have taken the decision this year to hold some of our exams off-campus so that we are able to accommodate larger groups of students that we are not currently able to house on site. Some exams will take place at the Railway Institute, near York Railway Station. You will be notified of your exam location, please make sure you read the information sent to you carefully. Resit exams will take place on campus and the location will be detailed on the timetable.
For exams off-campus clear directions to the venue will be sent to students before exams, in addition to clear signage and support staff on the day to help direct students into their exam.
We have exams within our programmes to allow students to meet the learning outcomes specified and adhere to the requirements of the professional bodies who accredit our programmes.
York St John University remains committed to providing in person activities as the central core of our teaching and learning offer and holding exams in-person is in line with this approach.
The reason for the move off-campus is not due to current Covid-19 restrictions and we will continue to hold exams in line with government guidance for education settings.
York Railway Institute is located at Queen Street, YO24 1AD. You can download our map for directions: York Railway Institute Directions Map (PDF, 0.6MB)
