I have been asked to show good cause to the Faculty as to why I should be permitted to re-enrol in my degree. What is good cause?
As stated in the University (Coursework) Rule 2000, good cause means: ‘circumstances beyond the reasonable control of a student’. What could be considered acceptable reasons for show cause include (but aren’t restricted to): serious illness – properly attested; accident or misadventure – properly attested; financial difficulties; inappropriate career/study choices; unsatisfactory study conditions; family/personal relationship problems; difficulties (for new students) adjusting to University life and the responsibilities of being a student.
