CONCESSIONS FORM FOR A LATE SUBMISSION

Please note: This form is not to be used as an appeal against a Board of Examiners decision, or for requesting an extension to a coursework deadline.

For full details concerning concessions, please refer to:

The concessions process relating to late submissions does not recognise reading the date of the deadline incorrectly, issues with computers or failing to back up your work as sufficient reasons for submitting work late. All students are reminded by Academic teaching staff, module materials online and in Induction or Welcome Back sessions that they should check their assessment deadlines carefully, and back-up all work on USBs, hard drives or cloud storage.

Legitimate concessionary reasons to request that a piece of work is accepted late include incapacitating medical problems or exceptional misfortune.

On the occasions where there are concessionary factors which have impacted an incomplete submission, students should complete this form and urgently book an appointment with Jacqui Double, the Student Support Officer, to request a concession supported by substantiating evidence, to be allowed to submit completed work within 5 working days of the original submission deadline.

If the work has not been submitted within 5 working days of the original submission deadline, you will be awarded a mark of 0.
