Exam information for off-campus students
Exam venues
We have a network of exam venues within Australia and overseas. Where you sit your exams will depend on where you live. To see the full address of your exam venue, click the venue field on your exam timetable.
If you live:
- in the metropolitan area of a capital city, you'll sit your exam at the capital city venue
- outside the metropolitan area but within 150km of a location on the list, you'll sit at that venue
- more than 150km from the closest exam venue, you'll need to nominate a venue.
