    Can you extend a first semester deferral to a gap year?

    Arts, Sydney Uni. Apparently they allow up to 4 semesters to be "suspended" during your course, I am wondering whether they allow you to do so prior to the course. My degree is 3 years and I have contacted the Uni days ago.

    Is it possible to defer the second semester if you deferred the first; a "gap year"?

    I deferred for the first semester this year to do some voluntary work, however the work that I have been offered stretches into September ie. into the second semester.

    Consideration?

    What are the specifics of academic consideration for school base exams for the HSC? I inquire because my hand was injured by a falling mirror (glass in hand, X-rays ect.) and this inhibited my ability to write. I could write but it was definately slower than normal as the wounds reopened and...
