There are three withheld grades:

• WC - Result not finalised. The student has submitted a request for Special Consideration, for which the outcome is pending.
• WD - Result not finalised. The student has not submitted or completed one or more components of the assessment requirement.
• WJ - Result finalised but not released. Awaiting the outcome of an unresolved matter.

If you receive a WC or WD grade you must contact your course authority within the specified time noted in the course handout, but in any case no more than 5 days after the release of results, as it might be necessary to organise further assessment. You will be aware of the unresolved matter that a WJ grade relates to.

The deadlines for finalising withheld results are:

• Semester 2 2018: 8 February 2019
• Summer Semester 2019: 8 March 2019
• Term 1: 21 June 2019
• Term 2: 4 October 2019
• Term 3: 7 February 2020

Any results not finalised by the set deadline will be converted to a course not completed grade (NC).  This grade counts as a Fail in the calculation of academic standing and academic progression.

Different semesters have different rules

Semesters 1 and 2 have Different Rules governing withheld results.

You can apply for a review of results for any of your assessment tasks.

If you are requesting a review of result for a group assessment, all participants must be in agreement before a request for a review of the group’s result may be requested. Please attach email confirmation from each group member when submitting your request (file size is limited to 2MB).

About re-assessment

If you wish to request a re-assessment of a piece of work, you should first discuss your performance with the Course Authority. If you still believe, after discussion, that the mark you've received doesn't reflect your performance, you may apply for re-assessment.

You'll be required to give reasons to justify your request for re-assessment. If you don't supply sufficient reasons, the School may decline to take action.

What to do, and when to do it

If you would like to have your results reviewed, please submit a Request for Review of Results here.

You must submit your application no later than 5 working days after the return of the piece of work or, in the case of an exam, 5 working days from the date of release of results.

Keep all marked work in case it is needed for re-marking.
