Academic Standing

Academic progress rules and procedures have been established by the University to help ensure that students make satisfactory progress in their studies and so that they can access appropriate support early on, if it is required. Academic Standing is an indication of your current progress toward completion of your Program. At the end of each Semester an Academic Standing is assigned to each student. This is calculated according to the proportion of the enrolled load passed (undergraduate students), or cumulative number of failures (postgraduate students). Research and Non-Award students are not included in the Academic Standing scheme.

There can be very good reasons for this which are sometimes within and sometimes beyond the control of the student. In the latter case the University, the Faculty and the School can all provide ways to help. The University has a 'Special Consideration' policy, and each of the Schools has its own policy for granting extensions and alternative forms of assessment. A number of student services also provide assistance: The Counselling Service Learning Centre Careers and Employment Student Equity and Diversity Unit Arc - Student Life Loans Scholarships Graduate Research School The University Health Service Nura Gili
