Student Handbook, Semester 1, 2009: Review of credit

Applicants for advanced standing who are dissatisfied with the outcome of an application and who wish to be provided with more information on the basis and implications of the ruling, should contact the relevant faculty office. Staff will provide available information in response to such a request, or arrange for the student to have further discussions that are deemed appropriate in the circumstances.

If, after having received such further advice, the student believes that an error has been made or that a ruling is unjust, the student is entitled to submit an application for review. Applications for review must be submitted in writing to the Dean of the relevant faculty and must be received within 30 days of mailing of the original written advice of the advanced standing decision.

Applications for review must be accompanied by appropriate information and documentation if available, and must state the specific grounds on which the application for review is based. The Dean of the relevant faculty will determine the form of the review. A review may lead to no change or to either a less favourable or more favourable outcome for the student.

The Dean will advise the student of the outcome of the review in writing. Determinations on reviews will be made as soon as practicable, but will not necessarily resolve any particular case before the close of enrolments for the next semester.
