If you have any concerns and believe that you may not be able to submit your thesis to Research & Enterprise Training Institute (RETI) by your registration end date, you can submit an RDA5: Changes to Registration Form and request for an extension to your registration.
Please discuss this option with your supervisors and contact your faculty research administration team for support.
You can find information on how to do this in the following online resources:
- Academic regulations for Postgraduate Research Awards, see Section D: Registration.
- Postgraduate Research Student's and Supervisor's Handbook, see Section K: Changes to Registration
Your request for an extension to your registration will be considered by the Faculty Research Degrees Committee (FRDC) and you will receive an email confirmation of the outcome.
If you are not sure what the end date of your programme is or when the paperwork deadlines are for the for the next FRDC meeting, please contact your faculty research administration team.
