Academic Misconduct at Coventry University

Hi,
I made a mistake during assignment submission and my similarity score is 96%.
I submitted my friend's assignment of a different subject in my module submission just to check the similarity score of his report, but by the time I submit my report either because I am late or the instructor blocked the submission, I could not submit my assignment.
now my friend's different module report is submitted in my submission.

I tried mailing and messaging the course instructor, but I got no reply what I should do now?

I would contact your school at university, or your academic advisor ASAP and if that fails get in touch with the students' union.

You and your friend may face disciplinary action. Not clear why you felt it was ok to submit your friend's assignment (from a different module) in place of your own? This will need some explaining at the disciplinary interview.
Very sketchy ground. You shouldn’t have been in possession of your friends work, much less be submitting it for similarity checking for dubious reasons.
