Process for Appeals
UCD Professional Academy is committed to providing an excellent training experience for all students, and considers a robust and consistent approach to assessment to be an integral part of that commitment. However, the Professional Academy also recognises that, from time to time, situations may arise where a student considers they may have grounds to appeal decisions related to assessment of their academic work.
Students wishing to appeal assessment decisions must do so within one week from receiving notification of their grade and by filling in the Grade Appeals form. Please refer to the Professional Academy’s procedure for submitting appeals (the procedure is detailed on the second page of the above linked form). Please note that supporting documentation should be included with the application in the form of a document which details the appealed sections and which acts as evidence to your appeal.
Students are asked not to direct queries regarding grades to individual lecturers.
Once the appeal has been considered, a determination will be reached by the Academic team and the outcome communicated to you.
