Appeals

An appeal is the only method by which a student can request a review of a decision made by an academic body about progression, assessment and award, as well as decisions made under several other Queen Mary policies.

There are various types of appeal. Please use the links below to navigate to the relevant information, guidance and documents:

Academic Appeals

• Any appeal relating to an academic decision (progression, assessment, award)

Administrative Appeals

• Any appeal about decisions or outcomes that may affect your studies or student experience, but are not academic results (for example, if you are deregistered due to unpaid fees)

Academic Misconduct Appeals 

• Where academic misconduct has been found to occur, a student may appeal this decision and/or any penalty imposed

Student Disciplinary Appeals 

• Where misconduct has been found to occur, a student may appeal this decision and/or any penalty imposed

Fitness to Practise Appeals 

• If you think you meet the grounds for a Fitness to Practise appeal, you can use AskQM to submit your appeal. Log into AskQM, and select 'new enquiry' then choose Appeals and Complaints as the enquiry category followed by 'Fitness to Practise Appeal' as the subcategory. 

Admissions Appeals

Please note that the Appeals, Complaints and Conduct office does not deal with appeals against admissions decisions. Admissions appeals are dealt with under the Admissions Appeals and Complaints policy. If you have any queries please contact the Admissions Manager at adm-mgrs@qmul.ac.uk.
