UVT Examinations

UVT expects all examination papers submitted for exemption assessment to be unique to the institution applying for exemption accreditation.

Upon receipt of your application UVT will use specialist detection software to ascertain if your examinations are in fact unique. If plagiarism has been detected UVT will be unable to proceed with an assessment of your programme until you have removed the plagiarised questions.
