Show Cause

Unsatisfactory Course Progression and Discontinuation of Enrolment 
ACAP University College endeavours to provide support to its students and will monitor individual academic progress. Any student who has been notified in writing of unsatisfactory course progression is able to submit a show cause submission to the Campus Manager.
What happens if I don’t show cause?
Your enrolment at the College will be discontinued as detailed in the Course Progression Policy.

What is the deadline for my submission to show cause?
Show cause submissions must be submitted within 10 working days of the date of notification of the decision. 

What happens if I miss the deadline?
A show cause submission will not be accepted past the deadline of 10 working days from the date of notification or the new deadline as agreed by the Campus leadership team.

What happens if I need more time to obtain supporting documentation?
If you require an extension to obtain your supporting evidence, please contact the Campus leadership team immediately to obtain a new deadline. Obtaining a new deadline for submission is very important.

What sort of information do I need to include in my submission?
Your submission should contain as much relevant information and supporting documentation as possible to help the College reach a decision, including:
  • any compassionate or compelling reasons for your previous performance, supported by documentary evidence;
  • any remedial action undertaken since you were advised of the academic caution or of being at risk of unsatisfactory course progression, and;
  • how you intend to improve your academic performance if permitted to continue your studies.
Please refer to the Show Cause - Letter Template to assist you with your submission. Please note this is to be used as an example only and yours may differ.
