When you have submitted your appeal application you will receive an email to your Exeter email address and you will receive further emails to update you as to where your appeal is in the process.
You will receive a formal response to your appeal within 30 calendar days of submitting your full formal submission. This response will include an email from the SRS system and this will be followed by an email with an attached Outcome Letter.
At very busy times of the year or in the case of a very complex appeal more time may be needed to process your appeal. If this is the case for your appeal, you will be notified by e-mail. Where possible we will clarify a new date by which you can expect to receive your outcome.
Unfortunately, it is not normally possible for the team to provide more regular updates on the progress of an appeal whilst it is being processed as this detracts from the time needed to process outcomes.
Unfortunately, it is not possible for us to guarantee a response sooner than 30 calendar days. Some appeals require lengthy consideration, and it may not be possible to provide a fair and reasonable outcome as quickly as you might hope. However, the team does take steps to identify priority appeals, such as those where future assessments may be impacted by the decision being made.
We do appreciate the situation can be stressful for students, so we do our best to provide outcomes as soon as reasonably possible.
Students who have planned assessment re-sits should prepare for those and if necessary, sit their assessment as expected while an appeal is pending, as there is no way of knowing if an appeal outcome will void these submissions until the outcome has been agreed.
