         <h3 class="title2" style="margin-top:5px;">Academic Appeal Policy</h3>
         <p class="bd-text">An academic appeal is a procedure, which allows a student to ask for a
            review of a decision relating to course or certificate. To be eligible to
            submit an appeal the student must have eligible grounds as per the
            appeal procedure. Academic appeals may consider allegations of
            procedural irregularity in the marking of assessments; but the decisions
            of the Board of Academics in all matters relating to academic judgement
            shall be final. There is no right of appeal against the academic
            judgement of the Board of Academics.
            Disagreement with the academic judgement of the Board of Academics
            in assessing the merits of an individual piece of work or in reaching a
            decision on a student’s progress or on the final level of an award, based
            on the marks, grades and other information relating to the student’s
            performance, cannot in itself constitute grounds for an appeal.</p>

         <p class="bd-text">The following are not grounds for appeal:<br>

            1. The student is not happy with the grade being given.<br>
            2. S/he thought would, or should, have achieved a better grade.</p>
