This kit covers two related but distinct situations: appealing an academic decision you disagree with — a grade, a failed module, a progression or dismissal decision — and defending yourself against a misconduct accusation such as plagiarism, cheating, collusion, or AI misuse. They aren't steps in one sequence: follow whichever path matches what's actually happening to you. Every tool in this kit is completely free to use — no account, no payment, no catch.
Pick your path
Two separate situations, two separate paths. Academic appeal and misconduct response deadlines are often very short — check your institution's regulations and the date on the decision or allegation letter first.
Path A · Appealing a decision
You disagree with an academic decision
Build a properly documented appeal — timeline, evidence, a grade calculation worksheet showing the mark difference, and a tracker for every appeal deadline. The main tool for this path.
Path B · Defending an accusation
You've been accused of misconduct
Prepare your defence against a plagiarism, cheating, collusion, or AI-misuse allegation — timeline, evidence inventory, source tracker, witness log, and hearing preparation. If the accusation involves AI use, document exactly how you used AI tools, and how you didn't.
