The University provides students with the right of appeal against a range of academic decisions. To ensure consistency, equity for students and compliance to required standards, these procedures set out the protocols for submitting an appeal, especially where specific clauses are not contained in a University policy. These procedures were approved at the 9 December 2017 Academic Senate [AS17:06/07]
