Abstract	The COVID-19 pandemic forced Higher Education Institutes (HEIs) to adopt alternative approaches to the delivery of their learning activities, including examinations. Many HEIs choose Remote Electronic Examinations (REEs) as a one-way solution due to physical presence restriction measures imposed by governments around the world. The present study aimed to record and analyze students' perceptions of the implementation of remote electronic examinations by the Hellenic Open University (HOU). A number of 5412 students participated voluntarily and filled out a questionnaire. Both qualitative and quantitative analyses were employed. Results revealed that students were satisfied in general with the examination process. Regarding integrity assurance issues, students were also satisfied. Furthermore, they expressed their desire to be examined remotely again. Avoiding traveling and saving money were the main benefits of remote electronic examinations. Regarding the examination topics and the duration of the examination sessions, some issues were reported. Finally, students suggested the provision of more time length. (As Provided).
