Release of Grades

Assignment Results

Your provisional marks for any coursework assignments will be released on Blackboard (not on the Turnitin assignment) - you can view these on the 'My Grade' tab. Your feedback on the assignment, including any mark deductions, will be provided on the assignment on Turnitin. Provisional results will be available approximately 4 weeks after the submission date. The exact release date for marks can be seen on the Turnitin portal for each assignment. You'll receive an email when assignment results are published.

Exam Results

Your provisional marks for any exams will be released on Blackboard - you can view these on the 'My Grade' tab. Provisional results will be made available within 5 working days after each Internal Examination Board. Please note that PGT exam results are not necessarily released in line with the undergraduate exam release dates that are published by the University. You'll receive an email when assignment results are published.

Students can request to view their marked exam scripts. Please note that not all markers write feedback onto the exam scripts, and they are not required to do so. If you wish to view your exam script(s), please email psypgt@sheffield.ac.uk to arrange a viewing time once your marks are available on Blackboard.

Summary of Results

If you need a "provisional transcript" before the end of your course, you can generate your own Summary of Results using the Student Document Self Serve. Please see the link on the University's Summary of Results for Postgraduate Students web page. Please note that this service will only be available once the PGT Support staff have submitted your results to the central Student Administration Service after each Internal Examination Board, which is a process that takes around 10 working days.

Resit Results

Your provisional results for any resit assignments and exams will be released in line with the information above - resits assignment marks will be released approximately 4 weeks after the submission deadline, and exam results will be released after the October Internal Examination Board. You'll receive an email when assignment results are published.

Confirmed Results & Award

Your confirmed results and official award classifications will be released once they have been approved by the Faculty, which is usually in early December. Results and transcripts are released through Gradintelligence. For more information about the process, please see the University's web page on how to access your digital transcript.

Your graduation ceremony will take place in January. You'll receive your certificate at your graduation ceremony. For more information please see the University's web page on degree certificates.

Please bear this in mind when applying for jobs, internships or further study.
