The university allows appeals in cases where you believe a procedural error has occurred with your grade, or cases where there are mitigating circumstances that affected your work and that could not have been disclosed at the time.
Disagreeing with an academic judgement on your work is not considered acceptable grounds for appeal. If you're unsure about whether you have valid grounds for appeal, contact the School in the first instance.
