Do you have a digital or paper assessment on campus soon? If so, go through the checklist relevant to you below to go to your assessment well prepared.
Practical preparation for your assessment
- Check your assessment registration in OSIRIS. You can register up to five working days before the day of your assessment.
- Do you think there is something wrong with your assessment registration? Please contact your faculty's STIP.
- You must be able to identify yourself with a valid identity document (passport, identity card, driving licence or residence permit). A copy, expired identity document or campus card do not count as valid identity documents.
- Has your identity document expired, been lost or stolen? Report this to your faculty's STIP at least 1 working day before your assessment. If you show a police report or appointment at the municipality, you can still participate.
- Bring your campus card if you wish to use the lockers in the Comenius building.
- Memorise your student number and password. You are not allowed to use your phone during the assessment, so you cannot access passwords that you have stored on your phone.
- Check your seat number in your personal timetable.
- Most digital assessments take place in the Comenius building. It is possible that you need to take a digital assessment in a different location. If so, you will not find the seat number, but the assessment location in your personal timetable. Find your table number on the list of candidates outside the hall. Is there no list? Then take place in the hall as instructed by the invigilator.
- Are you making use of a student-related provision such as extra time or a smaller examination room? Then please check well in advance whether your provision has been linked to your assessment registration correctly in OSIRIS. Is your provision not linked correctly? If so, contact your student advisor in time via email or your faculty's STIP.
- Are you making use of a student-related provision and are you taking a digital assessment in one of the halls? Then, depending on your faculty, you will receive the assessment location via your personal timetable, via email or via Brightspace one week before the assessment.
- Check which tools you are allowed to bring to your assessment, such as a dictionary or law book. Your examiner will inform you about this via Brightspace or email.
- Most digital assessments are taken with the help of the assessment software Cirrus. Are you going to take an assessment with Cirrus and want to get familiar with the digital assessment environment? If so, you can read more about what to expect prior to your assessment and/or complete the Cirrus demo test.
- Read the fraud regulations of your faculty. These apply while taking an assessment and can be found in the OER of your programme.
- Make sure you are familiar with the house rules for taking assessments at Radboud University. Here you can read which rules you have to follow and what you may and may not bring along to an assessment. Not following these rules may result in you being denied access to the examination room.
- Be quiet in and around the examination room. If you feel there is too much noise, report this to an invigilator.
