Hi,
Context: I am in my 3rd year undergrad degree, yet it is my last year to complete this course within the 5 year period threshold due to resitting years caused by personal circumstances. In the past 2 UG years I have gained a 2:1 in second year which counts as 40% towards my final grade. And in my 3rd year the first time round (which I am now resitting for some modules parts) gained a 1st for modules I passed in full or halfway. The 3rd year counts as 60% towards my final degree classification. I am re-sitting this 3rd year now to complete elements of modules I could not do due to circumstances.
Issues: My circumstances have exacerbated recently but I did not tell university about them in time so I am capped for 2 assignments at 40%. Also the other assignments I have done recently were quite bad only one was ok, one only had a plan for 1 question out of 2.
I just don't know whether I can get a certificate or diploma of sorts this late into my undergraduate degree - if so then I will gladly accept it for the 2 UG years I have completed so I can do a top-up degree elsewhere when I am better to do so.
I just would like to know if anyone has been able to gain a certification/diploma even in the 3rd year without finishing or even with finishing if I have to see it through due to timeframes but still can top-up?
P.S. I have booked a meeting with my tutor Friday - I just would like some unaffiliated responses. Thank you for taking the time to read this!
