Student Notices

During the final assessment period, students are encouraged take full advantage of all the support services outlined below. 

1. ACADEMIC SUPPORT 

If you have academic questions about a particular course or your programme, please do not hesitate to reach out to your faculty via your Programme Coordinator, Head of Department or Dean to answer questions. They will be your guides for academic support. They understand the challenges you have had to face and are invested in seeing you succeed. Click here to access the Campus Staff Directory.

2. MENTAL WELLNESS AND EMOTIONAL SUPPORT

For additional mental wellness and emotional support, services are available to help with end-of-the-semester pressures. You are reminded of the Counselling and Psychological Services (CAPS), which now offers telehealth clinical services, where you can speak with a counsellor via telephone or online. Get all details here.

3. EXAMINATIONS SUPPORT 

If there is need for assistance or examinations support during this period, Ms. Nardia Thomas-Allain – Assistant Registrar (Examinations), has assigned members of her staff to guide you. You can email the Faculty Specific Representatives at the Examinations Section (listed below) to have urgent matters expedited:

Social Sciences (including ALJGSB UG programme) and Food and Agriculture – Ms. Lynette Dookhran at lynette.dookhran@sta.uwi.edu

Engineering, Humanities and Education, Sport and Law – Ms. Prudence Cato at prudence.cato@sta.uwi.edu

Persons may also email the Assistant Registrar (Examinations) at nardia.thomas-allain@sta.uwi.edu or the Examinations Section at the general email exams@sta.uwi.edu.

The University has taken the decision to provide students with additional support by replacing any fail grade you may earn this semester with a "Fail with no Penalty" (FNP) grade. This grade will not negatively affect your GPA and it will protect your academic standing this semester. That is, at-risk students would not be placed on "Required to Withdraw" status.

The University wishes all students a successful close to the semester. Please keep accessing your email and the various online platforms, including the Campus social media channels, for updates.
