Alternative Arrangements for Assessments (AAAs)
Students enrolled in award courses at Monash and registered with the DLU may be eligible to receive Alternative Arrangements for Assessment 
(AAAs). If you have a disability or long-term medical condition and require AAAs, contact the Disability Liaison Unit as soon as possible. The earlier the better! You can discuss your specific exam and assessment requirements with them.
Arrangements are based on documentation provided by a qualified professional who has comprehensive training and experience in the relevant field of health/disability (see DLU documentation guidelines).
AAAs may include variation in the structure, format, duration or venue of an examination. Typical accommodations include:
- extra writing time in examinations,
- rest breaks,
- smaller venues,
- use of assistive technology or ergonomic furniture,
- papers or responses in alternative formats (braille, large print, audio, disk),
- use of a scribe, reader or AUSLAN Sign Language Interpreters,
- examinations at different times or on different days.
Students are advised to contact the Disability Liaison Unit directly should they need to discuss their AAAs or the AAA process.
