R/AA Examination Codes:

• UR = Replacement examination on medical, compassionate or extenuating circumstances.
• US = Additional assessment or task.

Additional Assessment - All Papers: If your final grade falls within the supplementary assessment range (usually between 45% and 49%), a note will be added to your course transcript. To pass the course, you will be required to take an Additional Assessment during the relevant R/AA exam period. This assessment is typically a centrally scheduled exam, but the Course Coordinator may assign an alternative task at their discretion.

By completing the Additional Assessment, you can achieve a passing grade, which is usually set at 50%.

Replacement Examination - All Papers: This note on your transcript will be visible to students who have applied for a Replacement Exam due to medical, compassionate, or extenuating circumstances, and have received approval for their Modified Arrangements for Coursework Assessment (MACA) application.

If you are approved to sit a Replacement Exam, you have the opportunity to obtain an uncapped final grade of up to 100%.

Additional Assessment - Last Course: If you receive a Fail grade for the last course you need to complete your program and have successfully applied for an Additional Assessment through the Last Course Application Form, you will see the Additional Assessment - Last Course note on your transcript.

Once you complete the Additional Assessment, the highest possible final grade is a passing grade, usually set at 50%.

Review the grade release dates to determine when the course’s result is expected to be available. Some results may be published before the official results published date.

Check your University email for any communication from the course coordinator regarding the missing result.

If your results are missing after the official results release date, please reach out to your Course Coordinator.

If you receive a Fail grade, you will need to repeat the course if it is a core requirement of your degree; if it is an elective course, you may have the option to repeat the course or to study another course. Please contact Student Success at your faculty office to discuss your enrolment options going forward.

Students may access their examination scripts for discussions with academics if they place their request in writing to the examiner within 28 days of the issue of the official results.

If a student is dissatisfied with an assessment grade they should follow the student grievance resolution process. See the student grievance resolution process website for further information.
