Deferral Policy

Deferral Policy

A request for an assessment deferral must be submitted to FITT in advance of the assessment deadline provided by the coordinator. Students may request a deferral for up to 30 days at one given time. A maximum of three (3) deferrals per assessment is permitted. A deferral request can be made by email from the local FITT Coordinator and FITT will invoice the institution directly OR a student can complete the online Deferral Form and pay FITT directly. Each 30-day deferral request is $50+tax. This deferral policy applies to all FITTskills assessments, rewrite assessments and the Professional Examination.

 A scheduled assessment that is unwritten/missed by the participant for no valid reason OR for which a “Request for Assessment Deferral” has not been submitted will be considered a failure.

 All requests from the coordinators and the students must be submitted to FITT a minimum of 3 business days prior to the assessment deadline.
