If your AA application is accepted for processing, it will be subjected to a rigorous review by a panel and be considered based on its circumstances. The processing time depends on factors including the complexity of the AA requested for and the timely submission of all supporting documents. Certain types of AA requests such as the use of a Reader, Practical Assistant, Scribe, or Word Processor may take longer time to process.

Your AA application outcome will be released via the following platforms:

• If you are a school candidate, your school will inform you of the outcome. If your AA application is submitted by the deadline, your outcome will usually be released by April of your examination year.
  
  Following the release of your AA application outcome, your schools may work with you to trial your approved accommodations during your daily teaching and learning sessions to better prepare you for your national examinations.

• If you are a private candidate, please access the Candidates Portal to view your outcome. If your AA application is submitted by the deadline, your outcome will usually be released by June of your examination year.
  
  Following the release of your outcome, you and/or your parents could consider trialing the approved AAs where feasible, to enhance your examination preparation.

If you have received AA for an examination paper due to a medical condition, you will not be eligible to apply for special consideration for sitting the paper with that same condition.
