Industrial Action: Undergraduate Marking and Assessment

Students impacted by the marking and assessment boycott will have additional information displayed on the transcript:

  • Marks impacted by the marking and assessment boycott will be marked with an asterisk (*) on the transcript, accompanied by the following text:

“Any provisional module outcomes will be indicated by an asterisk (*). In these instances, the Board of Examiners has not yet been able to confirm the final module result, but they have confirmed that all the module learning outcomes for these module(s) have been met.”

  • Year totals and programme totals impacted by the marking and assessment boycott will not be displayed on the transcript.
  • Classifications will be displayed and will not be marked as provisional.

Degree award documents will be updated and re-posted when we receive updates from departments. Please ensure your contact details are kept up to date via My Imperial.

Awarded students will also be able to access a supplemental letter that can be shared with third parties that clearly explains the nature of your provisional classification and our guarantee that your final classification will not be lowered when it is confirmed.
