Uq what if i fail a course

Maybe you had too much going on in your personal life. Whichever is the case for you, rest assured that you can get back on track to finish your course. First up, check with your institution to see if there is the possibility to re-sit an exam, complete a supplementary assessment usually only if you were close to passing or have your assessments looked at again.

Academically, you may not be able to proceed in your course or qualify for your major. The failed subject will also be displayed on your transcript and count towards your grade-point average GPA , which can affect your chances of getting into student exchange or further study honours programs, for instance. Future employers may also request copies of your transcript, particularly if you take up a position in a graduate program or enter a highly regulated profession such as accounting or engineering.
