The recalculation of final marks and the re-evaluation of answer scripts are the two options available if you would like your final results to be reviewed. This section is applicable to all programmes and modules offered on the Stellenbosch campus. Students of the Faculty of Medicine and Health Sciences should direct enquiries in this regard to [email protected]. On the Stellenbosch campus enquiries can be sent to [email protected].  

The recalculation of a final mark is conducted by the relevant lecturer or department to verify and recalculate your final mark. The objective is to ensure accuracy in the allocation and summation of all assessment components.

The re-evaluation of a final mark is a formal external review of your assessment/answer script to reassess its quality and confirm whether the awarded mark is justified and aligns with the established criteria. 

Students are strongly advised to work through their answer scripts before applying for the recalculation of final marks or the re-evaluation of assessment scripts. Refer to the Yearbook, Part 1 (General Rules) for the application procedures.
