Exceptional Circumstances, Extensions and Adjustments

Guidance for exceptional circumstances, extensions and adjustments for coursework and assessments.

If your coursework or exams have been affected by circumstances beyond your control, such as injury, illness or mental health issues you can apply for exceptional circumstances.

You can apply for three coursework extensions per academic year. Your extensions allowance will reset on 15th September each year.

Support and adjustments are available if you have a disability, learning difficulty or health condition that affects your studies.
