If your appeal is not accepted into the process

The appeals procedure is currently being redeveloped. Some new aspects are being brought in this year, and we are updating our guidance as things develop. If you're unclear about any part of the procedure, please email advice@luu.ac.uk or contact Student Cases at studentcases@leeds.ac.uk.


If your appeal isn’t accepted into the process at the Initial Review stage, the only thing you can do is raise it further with the Office of the Independent Adjudicator for Higher Education (OIA).

If your appeal is accepted into the process but gets rejected later on, you can raise it further to the Pro-Vice Chancellor. Please read our related articles for more information.

You will know which stage it was rejected at based on which options your outcome letter gives you for further review.

You can read about making a complaint to the OIA in our related articles.
