Calicut University - [CU], Calicut - Affiliated Colleges

If you are talking about the same paper then you can’t take the supplementary examination as well as improvement examination in the same semester at Calicut University. Let’s say you fail in paper A in the first semester and scored a B grade in paper B. During the third semester, you can write any paper of the first semester, if you pay the required fees. For paper B you will need to take an improvement examination and for paper A you need to take a supplementary examination. 

Visit the university website and fill out the Transcript application form. Keep in mind that the fees mentioned are old and it has been revised but the application can be used. 

Documents required - 

• Duly filled application form
• Copies of degree or provisional certificate
• Copies of Marksheets
• Academic request form
• Online payment receipt or Challan

To get transcripts of more than one course, you need to pay the fees separately and submit separate applications. 

The transcript application should be forwarded to The Controller of Examinations, University of Calicut, Calicut University (Post), Malappuram district, Kerala - 673 635. 

Total required fees - Fees per document, search fees (as applicable), postage charge (as required for the destination country), postage charge for personal copy (if opted). The total fees for a course can be submitted as a single challan. 

The application needs to be submitted by the candidate or by the verification agency/employer. The university takes around 40-50 days from the acceptance of application, to process the transcripts. 

Yes, Calicut University offers revaluation and improvement exams. You can write improvement exams if you have scored low in any of the subjects. The syllabus, exam and valuation are much more difficult than in other universities in Kerala. The improvement results might increase for example from D to B.

If you have failed or not attained the expected marks you can always apply for a revaluation paper. One of my friends failed an exam and after applying for revaluation got an A grade. However, the entire situation affected his placement procedure.

The exam schedule and results are disorganized at Calicut University.

The 1st sem exam will be held in the 3rd sem, 2nd sem exam in 4th sem, 3rd sem after two months of 2nd sem exam, 4th sem exam in 5th sem and the rest of the exams will be on time. Lastly, the consolidated certificate will be granted on time but the original certificate will take a lot of time.
