Registering with us as an external candidate
We appreciate that taking examinations, especially in an unfamiliar setting can be very stressful and so we will do everything we can to ensure that the process is hassle-free and that candidates are made to feel welcome and relaxed when they come to us. Even our largest exam rooms are small compared to most centres and we will rarely accommodate more than twenty five students per exam room.
To avoid additional stresses during the lead up to exams, we aim to make the process as simple as possible for any external candidate wishing to take an exam with Acorn House. If you would like to sit an exam with us, simple contact us to provide some very basic personal details, with your UCI number, and we will handle the registration process for you.
