A special consideration form is not guaranteed.
Start my Bond consultBond's rules don't mention telehealth. A certificate is judged on what it states and who issued it.
Applications go through MyBond.
Before the exam starts or within two business days after the scheduled exam. See a doctor the day you are unwell, not after the deadline.
Bond's deferred assessment page does not address telehealth or online certificates. It requires the Bond University Student Medical Certificate completed by a currently registered and approved health care professional, and the certificate itself states that it is not to be backdated.
In Section A, that you were unfit to sit, with the dates you were unfit from and until. In Section B, the impact on each domain: not affected, moderately, severely, or unable to assess.
The certificate is not to be backdated. It is dated on the day you are seen, so book the consultation before or on the exam day. It must be completed by a currently registered and approved health care professional, with a stamp or full practice details so Bond can verify it.
Deadlines, portals and evidence rules at Bond, from its published policy.
Start my Bond consultBond's published deferred assessment information does not address telehealth or online certificates. It requires its own Student Medical Certificate, completed by a currently registered and approved health care professional, with the consultation dates and a stamp or full practice details so it can be verified.
Before the exam starts, or within two business days after the scheduled exam. With three semesters a year the turnaround is tight, so lodge the application through MyBond as soon as you know you cannot sit.
No. The Bond University Student Medical Certificate states that it is not to be backdated. A practitioner can record that your illness began earlier once they have assessed you, but the certificate is dated on the day of the consultation.
Complete the Deferred Assessment Application Form available through MyBond, attach the Student Medical Certificate and any other supporting documentation, and lodge it with Student Assist inside the two business day window.
No. Bond specifically says not to request or submit a medical certificate when you are deferring on compassionate rather than medical grounds. Speak to Student Assist about the evidence that application takes.
Bond's process, in the order it happens.
A real-time special consideration consult. Tell the doctor the exam or due date; the certificate covers those dates.
Before the exam starts or within two business days after the scheduled exam.
Bond University Student Medical Certificate completed by the doctor, plus the medical certificate.
Bond may contact the practice to confirm the consultation. The link on each document answers that.
What the certificate must state, and what gets it refused.
In Section A, that you were unfit to sit, with the dates you were unfit from and until. In Section B, the impact on each domain: not affected, moderately, severely, or unable to assess. The condition you are suffering from, a note that it is confidential, or that you state you have it, according to what you have consented to. The dates of consultation, up to three, and the practitioner's stamp or practice contact details.
The certificate is not to be backdated. It is dated on the day you are seen, so book the consultation before or on the exam day. It must be completed by a currently registered and approved health care professional, with a stamp or full practice details so Bond can verify it. Do not request or submit a medical certificate if you are deferring on compassionate rather than medical grounds. That application takes different evidence. Section A and Section B do different jobs: one says you could not sit, the other rates how each part of your capacity was affected. Leaving either blank sends the form back.
Three outcomes, one application, the same evidence.
A deferred assessment lets you sit a mid-semester or final exam, or another timed assessment, at a later date. Complete the Deferred Assessment Application Form through MyBond and attach the Bond University Student Medical Certificate.
Special consideration applies when you attempted the assessment but illness affected your performance. The same Student Medical Certificate carries the evidence, and Section B's domain ratings are what the assessor reads to understand the impact on the day.
An extension moves the due date of coursework you can still complete. The certificate needs to show the dates you were unfit and the effect on your capacity to work on the task, not just that you attended an appointment.
Sorted within the day. A real-time consult with a registered doctor, then the certificate and the Bond University Student Medical Certificate Bond asks for.
