Can I request for a remark of an assessment?

Yes, you may request a formal review of an assessment mark or grade, but only under the following circumstances.

• Your work was not assessed according to the criteria outlined in the subject outline
• A technical error occurred in marking or in the calculation of marks
• You believe there was bias on the part of the marker

Reviews are not available if your grade has already undergone formal moderation.

Step 1: Ask your lecturer first

Within 3 business days of receiving your assessment result, you must first ask your marking lecturer for an explanation of your mark or grade.

Step 2: Submit a formal review request

If you are not satisfied with the lecturer’s explanation, you may submit a Review of an Assessment Grade Application Form within 10 business days of receiving your mark.

Your application must include:

• Your full name, student number, and contact details

• The grounds for your request
• Specific issues to be addressed
• Supporting evidence (e.g., extracts from your assessment, documents)
• The resolution you are seeking

Important note

If your circumstances relate to illness, hardship, or other compassionate and compelling reasons, please apply for Special Consideration instead.
