What can I do if something affects my studies?

If something is happening in your personal life that means you're struggling with an assignment, you can submit an Exceptional Circumstances claim to ask for an extension or ask for a further assessment attempt. Make sure you submit a claim for an extension before the deadline has passed, and within 7 days of your original deadline if you're asking for another assessment opportunity. More information is on our Exceptional Circumstances page.

Can I use AI to help me with my work?

You may find it helpful to use AI to give you ideas of what to include in your assignment. Make sure you always follow this up with your own research, using credible sources - AI tools are known to fabricate information and references.

 

It is an academic misconduct offence to submit an assessment containing any words generated by a software tool, such as ChatGPT or translation software, unless your assessment instructions tell you it can be used. This is because content produced by these platforms does not represent your own original work and you should not be using them to generate content to pass off as your own.

 

If your tutor does allow you to use AI, make sure you read the assessment instructions carefully.
