A. Yes. Sometimes crises happen in your personal life which affect your ability to study, do assignments or sit exams. Talking with a counsellor can often help you to manage the situation better. If necessary, the counsellor may be able to write a letter supporting your Application for Special Consideration, or you explanation of why you should not be excluded from your course, or your Appeal against a failure grade or an exclusion decision. If you wish, the counsellor can accompany you if you have to appear before a Progress Review Committee or an Appeal Committee. The Student Union have Education Officers who also provide support to assist students through their appeals and reviews and other academic concerns.
