Exclusion from studies

Circumstances where exclusion will be considered as an option.

While it is very rare for students to be excluded from study, there are some circumstances in which the University will consider this option. These include:

  • Where a student has not demonstrated academic progress at an annual progression review.
  • Where a student has not submitted a thesis by the end of their maximum period of study.
  • Where a student has not met any engagement requirements as set out in their programme handbook.

A student who has been excluded for lapse of time may ask the College to reinstate their registration at a later date to permit examination of a completed thesis. More information about all the potential grounds for exclusion is available in the University’s Procedure for Withdrawal and Exclusion from Studies.
