Appeals against assessment results
In this area
If you want to appeal a decision made by a Progression and Award Body (PAB), you must:
- complete an appeal form
- provide full supporting evidence explaining your reason for appeal
- email your form and evidence to registry.london@coventry.ac.uk, within 10 working days of your results being released on SOLAR.
What you can't appeal
You may not appeal just because you disagree with the academic judgement of the Board. Appeals based on issues like poor supervision or teaching arrangements are treated as complaints, not appeals.
Appeal guidance
Full details to appeal are available in the Academic Regulations, Appendix 2.
A Student guide to Academic Appeals is available in the Registry Section of the Student Portal.
Important
If you submit an appeal, your award will not be formally confirmed until the appeal is resolved. This may delay your certificate until the next conferment board meets.
