Practical information

Design and layout

  • AU’s new exam hall has been specially designed for written exams. It has excellent technical facilities and a conducive indoor climate, lighting and acoustics.
  • The building has three floors with 11 large exam rooms and can accommodate 1,100 students at a time.
  • All exam desks are equipped with individual power sockets and height-adjustable chairs.
  • It’s rarely completely silent in the exam room during exams, because there are a lot of students and exam supervisors gathered in one space. If you’d like to use your headphones without audio for noise cancellation to help you concentrate, that’s allowed at all exams under the rules on digital devices.  However, whether you can use your headphones with audio depends on the exam, so make sure you consult the rules for your particular exam.

Facilities for students who require tailored assistance

  • The Exam Hall has 10 individual exam rooms and the option for partitioned desks in communal exam areas for students who require tailored assistance.
  • If you require an individual exam room or a partitioned desk, please apply for exam dispensation via your board of studies

Accessible facilities 

  • There are six accessible parking spaces outside the Exam Hall.
  • There is also a lift and accessible toilets on every floor.

Food and drink

  • There is a vending machine on the ground floor where you can buy snacks and cold drinks.
  • There are cold water fountains on every floor, so you can fill up your water bottle.

IT support 

You must bring your own computer to your exam.

Before your exam, it’s important that you update your computer’s operating system (e.g. Windows or iOS) and the programs you’ll be using in your exam (e.g. Device Monitor and FLOWlock). See how to do this on AU’s WISEflow webpage

Once you’ve updated your computer and/or other programs, it’s important to test the programs you’ll be using before your exam. You can do this using the Demoflows available in WISEflow.

There is limited on-site IT support at the Exam Hall.
