While studying at QMU, you may face unexpected personal circumstances interfering with your academic work. These could include bereavement, illness, accidents or technical issues with submissions. These would NOT include issues connected to your job. If these circumstances are beyond your control and prevent you from performing well in your studies, speak to your Programme Leader. You will need to complete an online Extenuating Circumstances form available from your student portal (Canvas).

On some occasions, you may be able to submit an Extenuating Circumstances form after your deadline. For more information, read the Extenuating Circumstances Policy below and come to your Students’ Union if you have any questions.

For more information, read the Extenuating Circumstances Policy
