Academic Appeals

Please see below for further details and to find out how we can support you through the process.  

The Appeals Procedure

Provided that the appeal is submitted on time, meets the appeals criteria and contains suitable supporting evidence, it will be forwarded to your Faculty Assessment Board (a group of academics who make decisions about assessments) for consideration. 

You have 15 working days (which is usually 21 calendar days) to submit the webform after the publication of your ratified (officially confirmed) result. You can check on student records to see if your result is ratified. The webform automatically sends to Student Conduct and Appeals. You can tick a box to request that you are sent a copy too – we strongly recommend doing this.

There are only two main grounds for appealing: 

• That you had mitigating circumstances that you could not tell the College about at the time. 
• That there was a serious administrative error by the College.  

However, if you submitted a Mitigating Circumstances Form at the time of your assessment(s) and it was declined, you can also appeal that decision on these two grounds:

• There is new evidence that you couldn’t provide at the time you submitted your MCF, which shows that your case should be reconsidered.
• There was a significant administrative error made by the College when they considered your MCF, which shows your case should be reconsidered.

Unfortunately, the College doesn't accept appeals on the basis of what is known as 'academic judgement', which is when a student disagrees with the mark they have received. Unfortunately, any appeals that are submitted without evidence of mitigating circumstances or an administrative error are likely to be rejected by Student Conduct and Appeals, so would not be forwarded to the Assessment Board for consideration. If you are concerned there has been an error with your mark, then you can contact your department to request a clerical check.

The most important part of the appeal form is the statement, which must be backed up by independent third party evidence (such as from a doctor, counsellor or similar professional). Please see below for guidance on completing these and get in touch if you need further support.

Our Triage Advisor can provide you with guidance on completing the appeal form, and a Caseworker can check over your statement and evidence before you submit it to the College. You should receive an outcome (via e-mail) within 42 days of your ratified results being published.   

College regulations regarding appeals can be found  here . 

Please be aware that you can only appeal once your result or decision has been ratified by the Board of Examiners.

How We Can Help

Our friendly caseworkers can talk you through the appeals procedure, answer any questions you might have about the process, and assist you to complete your appeal. 

We can: 

• Talk through your circumstances with you to determine if you are able to meet one of the two regulations for making an appeal. 
• Assist you in ensuring that you complete the Stage One Appeal form clearly and accurately. 
• Advise on what you should include your statement and also provide feedback on it before you submit the appeal. Please note, the written statement for an appeal is extremely important – you should not submit your appeal without seeking feedback from KCLSU. Please take a look at our guides below and get in touch (link to online form) if you need any further support.  
• Help you make sense of your outcome and discuss the formal appeal process if you are not satisfied with the decision. 

What does it mean that you cannot appeal until your marks are ratified?  

Once the marking procedure for assessments is complete, marks are reviewed and validated by a Faculty Assessment Board. Until this has happened, marks are not official, they are only provisional. Once they have been validated by the Board, they become official, or “ratified”. Appeals can only be submitted for an assessment once the mark has been ratified.   

How will I know if my marks have been ratified and when?  

Sometimes when your marks are released it will be clear if they are provisional or ratified results. If you are in any doubt, contact the administrative team in your department.  

I don’t think I will be able to get evidence within 21 days, what can I do?  

It is important to try to submit the appeal and evidence within the 21 days. Sometimes, though, this just isn’t possible as you need letters from professionals which can take time. If this is the case, you can write to Student Conduct & Appeals to request an extension. You will need to provide a valid reason as to why you can’t provide the evidence on time. They may be able to offer you a short extension but this is at their discretion and is not guaranteed.  This means that you can submit  an MCF  up to 7 days after your assessment or submission deadline, but you will be asked to provide a good reason as to why you did not follow the normal mitigating circumstances procedure before you presented yourself for an examination or submitted coursework ( T43.6 ). 

I want to appeal but I am outside of the 21-day deadline, is there anything I can do?  

If you have a legitimate reason as to why the appeal is late, we would usually recommend submitting the appeal anyway. We advise students to submit a covering letter with the appeal outlining why it is late. The evidence submitted with the appeal should support the reasons given for the late submission. It is not guaranteed that your appeal will be accepted; it is at the discretion of the Student Conduct & Appeals Office whether to forward the appeal on to the Assessment Board for review. 

What evidence do I need to send with my appeal?  

Evidence needs to be from a third party i.e. not from family, friends or anyone personally linked to you. It needs to signed, dated and on headed paper. Evidence should come from recognized practitioners such as doctors, counsellors, therapists etc.  

The evidence should ideally be contemporary i.e. from the time of the assessment or from a professional who saw you at around that time.  

The evidence needs to be in English or be translated into English. It needs to be clear who carried out the translation. It is better if it is done by a third party.  

Further information can be found in our Appeals Guidance. 

Will the information I disclose in the appeal be kept confidentially?  

All information disclosed will be treated sensitively. Details will only be shared with those involved in the appeals process and will be kept confidential.  

Is there any way I can appeal but not have to retake the assessment? Can the exam board reconsider my marks?  

Marks can never be changed as a result of an appeal. Only a replacement attempt can be offered if an appeal is successful.  

What happens if I want to appeal final year exams? Will I still be able to graduate?  

As long as you have acquired enough credits, you will still be able to graduate. If you lodge a successful appeal, you would re-sit the appealed assessments at the next possible opportunity. If the results are different, your transcript and certificate would be modified accordingly.  

If you do not have sufficient credits you will not be able to graduate but, if you gain these following a successful appeal, you can graduate at a later date. 

Can I appeal if my case doesn’t match either of the criteria? 

The only two grounds for appeal are those set out in the Introduction. You appeal must meet one or both of these criteria (backed up with evidence) in order for your appeal to be forwarded to the exam board for review.  

I don’t feel that my assessment was marked fairly, can I appeal?  

Appealing because you disagree with your mark is considered a challenge to academic judgement and will not be accepted. 

The Student Conduct & Appeals Office have declined to forward my appeal to the exam board, is there anything I can do?  

Appeals are sometimes rejected at the initial filtering stage meaning they are not passed on to the Faculty Assessment Board for review. This decision is made by the Student Conduct & Appeals Office and can be for a number of reasons such as the appeal being submitted late, the appeal not meeting the grounds or a lack of evidence provided.   

It is possible to contest this decision. Please get in touch for further support with this.  

My appeal was rejected, what happens now?  

It is possible to submit a Stage Two Appeal to have your case considered by a hearing committee. These must be submitted within 10 working days of receiving the Stage One outcome.  

Please get in touch if you would like support lodging a Stage Two Appeal.

Writing your PhD/research degree thesis

The College provides you with a dedicated range of digital courses to help you with your writing. The courses are accessible via the King’s Learning and Skills Service platform (KLaSS)

The Library can assist you with identifying the right referencing style for your work, finding a suitable referencing and bibliographic management software, building comprehensive bibliographies and reference lists. For an overview of the areas supported, please consult our dedicated Library Guides page .

For assistance with ensuring academic integrity and avoiding plagiarism, please see the relevant module in the King’s Academic Skills for Learning (KASL) platform.

Depositing your PhD/research degree thesis with the Library

Since April 2012, students who are awarded a research degree are required to submit to the Library an electronic copy of their final PhD thesis. The College’s Academic Regulations have changed for 2020-21 and have dropped the requirement for a hard bound printed copy of an awarded thesis to also be submitted to the Library. Only an electronic version (ethesis) is now required to be submitted. 

This change in Regulations applies to PhD students whose PhD is awarded from October 2020. And also includes those awarded pre-October 2020 who have not submitted a hard bound printed copy to date.

The electronic thesis you submit must be the awarded, post-VIVA version, formatted as a PDF file. Please email this to [email protected] , copying in [email protected]

• If your thesis is accompanied by supplementary material and/or appendices, please submit these together and at the same time with the electronic version of your thesis.
• If you have created or collected research data (in the form of datasets, images, interviews and transcriptions, software, etc.) and would like advice on these materials, please send a query to [email protected] to discuss the most suitable solution for storing, securing, preserving and sharing your data, including ways to share data which are sensitive at the origin point, such as data anonymization and pseudonymization.

If you have any questions about your ethesis, please get in touch with the Research Support team in the Library at: [email protected]

Publishing your PhD/research degree thesis in our repository

All electronic research degrees theses that are submitted to the Library will be published Open Access via our institutional repository Pure. As a consequence, they will be discoverable through the College’s Research Portal, as well as through the Library Search Catalogue, along with all the research outputs produced at King’s.

The College strongly advocates for the dissemination of all research made at King’s via our institutional repository, including the research underlying your thesis. Publishing electronic theses in our repository facilitates greater impact, as electronic theses are hundred times more likely to be read; it helps students make connections with other researchers; it establishes precedence already at the early stages of a researcher’s career; it also provides the author with usage stats, which, by showing how many times the thesis has been downloaded, can offer factual endorsement when seeking for a deal to strike with a commercial publisher.

When an electronic thesis is downloaded from the Research Portal a PDF coversheet is dynamically created. The coversheet displays essential metadata (Author, Title) and provides the end-user with information on the thesis’ copyright which remains with you . The coversheet also states which Creative Commons license has been applied.

Please note that all the content we publish in our repository is made available under a CC BY NC ND license, which allows the reuse of such content for non-commercial purposes, as long as the content is not remixed, transformed or built upon.

The coversheet also declares that the College follows a strict take-down policy, to oblige any unintentional copyright breach the Library might be notified of.

EThOS - the British Library etheses service. Theses within Pure are harvested by the British Library's EThOS programme so that they may also be found by anyone searching this national service.

Your thesis and third party copyrighted material

Once uploaded in our repository, your thesis will become publicly available. Normal copyright rules will apply to your thesis which will no longer be covered by the ‘Fair Deal’ clause that allowed you to use any copyrighted third-party material without permissions, solely for research purpose.

Before submitting your thesis to the library you must have verified that the copyrighted material that you might have included in it is available under a Creative Commons license; or you must have been given by the copyright owner the necessary permissions to reuse it. Good citation and referencing practices are always strongly recommended and will sometimes suffice – but not always.

Some use of copyrighted work without needing to request permission is allowed, for example short quotations. However, there are no hard and fast rules about the meaning of 'short'. In case of doubt, please see the guidance offered by the Intellectual Property Office website , or get in touch with us at  [email protected]  

The copyright owner may be the author, a publisher, an illustrator etc. Many publishers give information on their websites about who to contact. If the publisher doesn't hold the rights, they will be able to forward your query to the correct person. If you have never written a copyright permission request, you could refer to this suggested wording

Third-party copyrighted materials that are often included in a research degree thesis are:

- figures, table and graphs from journal articles;

- manuscripts and photos from archives;

- images reproducing works of art;

- articles that you have authored or co-authored and are part of your thesis.

If you have reused several images and figures from journal articles, please check that they were published Open Access under Creative Commons. If they were, you will not need to seek with the copyright owner any permission to reuse them. Please note that the fact that the third-party material is available in the internet does not prove that the material is either non-copyrighted or genuinely Open Access or belongs in the Public Domain. It might have been unlawfully uploaded.

Whether you have used a well-known image or an image which is rather obscure, we would recommend to check with the Creative Commons searching tool whether there is a version of that image which has been licensed as CC.

If the articles you authored and need to include in your thesis were not published Open Access, it is very likely that you have waived your copyright to the publisher at the time of the article’s acceptance. This means that, even though you wrote it, you must consider your article as third-party copyrighted material and therefore seek for the permission to reuse it (in part or fully). If you fail to obtain it, you may still be able to include (or link to) the author’s accepted manuscript, which you might have already archived in our institutional repository and linked to your profile page .

In general, when you failed to secure permissions to reuse the copyrighted material included in your thesis, you will need to redact a new version of your thesis tailored for the repository upload, which will no longer include the copyrighted content. As the redaction must not significantly alter the content of your thesis, we recommend you contact us to discuss the most suitable options. 

If the removal of the copyrighted material from your electronic thesis compromises the integrity of the whole, it may be best to submit to the Library only the original, awarded version and request that the thesis be not made available online. This means you could either embargo your thesis or restrict the access to it . Please, discuss this with your supervisors before contacting the Library.

Embargoing your thesis

If you are planning to publish your thesis as a monograph or a series of articles with a commercial academic publisher, please discuss with your supervisors the opportunity to apply a temporary embargo to your thesis. If you have requested an embargo, the Library will not make your thesis publicly available until the embargo has elapsed. The embargo will also apply to the print copy of your thesis, which will be stored in a restricted area and will not be made available for consultation in situ .

If your thesis contains personal and/or sensitive data, or data that might endanger the national or individual security, you will need to permanently restrict the access to it. You will still be required to deposit your thesis to the Library, in both print and electronic format; however, your thesis will not be made available for consultation, or uploaded in our repository. If you have created or collected sensitive data, please contact the Research Data Management team to discuss the most suitable options for safely and securely store your data.

If your thesis contains third-party copyrighted material for which you failed to secure permission to reuse, and the removal of such material would compromise the integrity of your thesis, then you will need to restrict the access to it, until such permissions have become available to you. If you have been denied permission, then you might need to restrict the access to your thesis on a permanent basis.

Embargo and restriction of access requests must be submitted using the online form . Temporary embargoes can be applied for a period of either 1- or 5-year. Once your embargo has expired, you have the option to request a one-year extension. You can submit your extension request online .
