Week 13 is a buffer zone!

University policy states that week 13 should be devoted to "consolidation and review".


Week Thirteen of Semester - Policy

In relation to coursework units with examinations, week thirteen (or the last week of semester) will be devoted to consolidation and review.  There will be no class tests in Week Thirteen and assignment deadlines will be no later than the end of Week Twelve.



The week 13 policy is available here.


This means that no student should have new material, class tests or assignment deadlines after week 12.

There's still a bit of debate over Language classes and Oral Examinations, but we'll keep you posted!


Unfortunately, many faculties ignore this policy, disadvantaging students and making it impossible to revise before exams.  The Week 7 power failure highlights the requirement for Week 13 to be keep free of tests, assignments and new material.

If your unit did not comply with the Week 13 policy this semester, let us know below whether you have no time to make up classes as a result of the power failure or no revision time.


The Monash Student Association will be submitting a list of subjects that fail to comply to the University Education Committee, to ensure that the week 13 policy is abided by.

If your subject has after week 12

  • Any classes that introduce new material

  • Assignment due

  • Any class tests
