Reviewing your assessment results

If you disagree with an assessment result, you might be able to request a review of your result. 

Eligibility

To request a review of an assessment result, you must be able to demonstrate one of the following:

  • There was bias on the part of the assessor.
  • The assessment was inappropriately constructed or an inadequate basis was provided for completing it.
  • The assessment was of a scale or degree of difficulty not commensurate with the level and weighting of the unit.
  • The assessor made an error of fact in assessing the content of the submitted work.

Request a review

Download and complete our review of assessment outcome request form:

Submit the completed form within 5 days of receiving your unit results. You can submit online via AskVU or in-person at a VUHQ student service centre.

Once the request form has been submitted, your Course Chair (or equivalent) will make relevant inquiries into the matter. This may include discussing the result and the feedback with the assessor.

Please note the outcome of your result review request is final and is not an appealable decision.

Advice & support
