Concessions

 Concessions

Sometimes students' coursework or exam performance is affected because of a significant illness, personal problem or traumatic event, such as a bereavement.  If something happens which adversely affects your ability to study and you are concerned  that your coursework or exam performance will suffer as a result, you can apply for a concession.  Your department can grant concessions such as extra time to submit an essay or other coursework.  It is important, where possible, to apply for a concession before rather than after the coursework deadline or the exam and to provide evidence to support your application.
