TIMEFRAMES

As all cases are considered on their individual merits applications may be processed outside the normal timeframes detailed below if the circumstances warrant it. Applications for Special Consideration can be submitted up to the time of the processing of results (mid July for first semester, late November for second semester), after this time students can apply for a DNF (Discontinue Not Fail).

You are advised to make applications before or shortly after you have completed assessments:

• if you have suffered an extended period of illness or misadventure, you should apply within five working days of the end of the period in which your work was affected
• if you are reporting illness or misadventure that will delay the submission of written work you should apply, if possible, before the due date for the work
• if you know that you have a special commitment coming up, such as a religious or sporting commitment, you should apply at least five working days before the date of the commitment.
