Hello,
I'm currently appealing a decision against my university to suspend my course as I've failed 1 out of 6 modules in my first year. Without going into to too much detail I've had a lot going with my family/home life and was caring a lot for a disabled family member.
Although I knew it was impacting me I really hoped I wouldn't be in this position. The university now wants to know why I didn't tell them earlier in order to consider my appeal but I have no good reason. Honestly, I didn't feel comfortable mentioning my problems with anyone at the university and especially when I had started so recently it felt a bit much to blurt it all out.
I don't know what to do?
