Life can be unpredictable, and we know that sometimes you might face difficulties that impact your studies. Mitigating circumstances are the procedures you can use to tell the University that something is preventing you from submitting your work in the normal way.
If you are considering putting in a claim for mitigating circumstances, there is a detailed guide explaining the process on the firstpoint webpages: https://www2.worc.ac.uk/firstpoint/mitigating-circumstances.html
It has FAQs which divides the process into sections, including how to make a claim, what different types of claims are available, and how to upload supporting evidence. All the information is available as both text and as an audio guide.
If you are looking for additional support, we encourage you to speak with the firstpoint Advisers, the Students’ Union Advisers, or email the mitigating circumstances team directly: mitcircs@worc.ac.uk
