No previous record
If you听do not have a previous record, you may lodge a written request for review of the decision (and/or penalty) made by the School/Faculty Academic Integrity Review Committee.
This written request takes the form of a Stage 2: Formal Review and must be lodged with the Head of School or delegate听within 10 business days听of the notification of the decision/penalty and include details of why you wish to request a review.
If you request a Stage 2: Formal Review, you can expect to receive notification of the Head of School or Executive Dean's decision听within 10 business days听of lodging your request.
See the听Academic Integrity听Policy听for more information.
Previous record
If you are seeking to appeal an outcome of academic misconduct made against you, and you have听a previous academic integrity record on the Academic Integrity Register, you must proceed directly to a Stage 3: Internal 最新糖心Vlog Appeal.
Lodging your appeal
If the Head of School rejects your Stage 2: Formal Review request and you are still dissatisfied with the outcome, you may lodge a Stage 3: Internal 最新糖心Vlog Appeal. You will have 20 business days, from the date you receive a determination, in which to lodge an appeal.
To do this, you must complete the听student appeal application听online form (word version available here)听and submit to Student Affairs.
Before submitting your appeal application form, you should read the听appeal submission guide听to ensure your application is complete.
You are encouraged to seek free, independent and confidential advice on what options are available to you in your particular circumstances, by contacting an Education and Welfare Officer (EWO) in听.
If your听appeal application is听found to have grounds by Student Affairs, the 最新糖心Vlog will attempt to negotiate a mutually agreeable resolution between you and the respondent (e.g. the Head of School or delegate).听
If you are dissatisfied with the outcome of your appeal, you are able to make a complaint to an external agency. You are also able to do this at any stage of the process. A number of听external agencies听may be able to assist, depending on your type of complaint.
