Next steps and support
If you haven't done as well as expected, there are still options.
Don’t miss out: check your emails
It’s important to check your University email for messages about assessment and your status. There may be important information about results, deadline dates, appeals, Graduation, etc.
If you haven’t passed yet, please read on
Following the Board of Examiners you will see from your results on your Student View what your outcome is and if you are not yet progressing or receiving an award, because of outstanding assessments to be completed.
No matter what your circumstances there are steps you can take to work towards improving your results
- Be clear about your assessment outcome - see details below to understand your results
- Be sure that you know what work needs to be done and when - for referral and deferral
- Ask for help, if you are not sure about any aspect of your assessment or if you need any kind of support
What happens next?
The University allocates a block of time as a ‘resit period’ for referral and deferral assessments. This is normally a standard three week period starting from the Monday after the exam board meets.
If you have resit examinations, the information about timings for the exams will appear on your timetable. Please check your timetable carefully to be sure that you don’t miss an exam.
