Submitting an appeal – Stage Two

If, upon receipt of the Stage One outcome email, you feel that there has been an error or irregularity with the consideration of your case, you may decide to escalate it to Stage Two of the appeal process.

You can submit your stage two appeal via the Academic Appeals form. Clearly explain why you remain dissatisfied.

Once the appeal has been submitted, you will receive an email acknowledgement with further information.

The team will prepare a report for consideration by the University Appeal Panel. The team may need to request further information from the University or from you prior to the Panel meeting, and the report will be shared with you for comment prior to circulation to the Panel. Therefore, you should regularly check your email during this time.

Whilst awaiting the outcome of the appeal, you are expected to prepare for and to undertake any resit assessments for modules in which you have been referred.

The Stage Two appeal will be considered by a University Appeal Panel, the Panel is chaired by an Assistant Vice-Chancellor and membership includes one senior representative from each college, and from Student and Academic Services.

If the Panel feels that more information is required, the decision will be placed on hold whilst the Student Casework Team contact University staff and/or you for further details/documentation.

Once the Panel has reached a decision, the Student Casework team will produce a Completion of Procedures notification detailing the outcome by email. It is anticipated that the email will be sent within six weeks of the Stage Two submission.

The Completion of Procedures notification marks the end of UWE Bristol's appeal process. The email will advise you on the next course of action should you disagree with the Appeal Panel's decision.
