When will you receive your provisional results email?

Students following BA, BSc and LLB programmes were sent their provisional marks, by email, on 7 July 2023. We send this email to give you the maximum amount of time to prepare for the in-year resit and deferral period (IRDAP) which begins on 14 August 2023. 

Assessments with an asterisk (*)

If an asterisk (*) shows against an assessment this means that you have EITHER a confirmed deferral in place OR achieved a mark of zero (usually as the result of an absence) for that specific assessment. If you have had an email confirming that your deferral was processed there is nothing further that you need to do. 

Missing Assessment Marks

If there is a blank space against an assessment, this means the mark has not yet been received by the Student Services Centre  and most likely has been delayed by the Marking and Assessment Boycott.

Missing Course Marks and Grades

If there is a blank space against a course, this means that we are missing a mark for at least one of the components in that course and thus cannot calculate an overall mark for the course. 

Grades

Grades show against courses. You can interpret them using the list below:

1 = First class
2A = Upper Second class
2B = Lower Second class
3 = Third

F = Fail
NA = At least one component of assessment has been deferred
AB = Absent from all components of assessment
I = Incomplete (i.e. you were absent from at least one component of assessment but have completed others)

If a grade is missing this means that we are missing a mark for at least one of the components in that course and thus cannot calculate an overall grade for the course. 

When will you receive your provisional results email?

Students following the General Course, LSE GO programmes, Erasmus etc. were sent their provisional marks, by email, on 7 July 2023. We send this email to give you the maximum amount of time to prepare for the in-year resit and deferral period (IRDAP) which begins on 14 August 2023. 

Class Grades

The provisional results email does not display class grades, it only shows marks for assessments. Class grades are communicated separately. 

Assessments with an asterisk (*)

If an asterisk (*) shows against an assessment this means that you have EITHER a confirmed deferral in place OR achieved a mark of zero (usually as the result of an absence) for that specific assessment. If you have had an email confirming that your deferral was processed there is nothing further that you need to do. 

Missing Assessment Marks

If there is a blank space against an assessment, this means the mark has not yet been received by the Student Services Centre  and most likely has been delayed by the Marking and Assessment Boycott.

Missing Course Marks and Grades

If there is a blank space against a course, this means that we are missing a mark for at least one of the components in that course and thus cannot calculate an overall mark for the course. 

Grades

Grades show against courses. You can interpret them using the list below:

A+ = 75%+
A = 70% - 74%
A- = 65% - 69%

B+ = 60% - 64%
B = 55% - 59%
B- 50% - 54%

C+ = 45% - 49%
C = 40% - 44%

F = Fail (0% - 39%)
NA = At least one component of assessment has been deferred
AB = Absent from all components of assessment
I = Incomplete (i.e. you were absent from at least one component of assessment but have completed others)

If a grade is missing this means that we are missing a mark for at least one of the components in that course and thus cannot calculate an overall grade for the course.

When will you receive your provisional results email?

Students following taught postgraduate programmes that receive their results in November were sent their provisional marks, by email, on 4 September 2023. We send this email so that you can find out the grades from your taught courses whilst you're waiting for your dissertation or capstone course to be marked.

Assessments with an asterisk (*)

If an asterisk (*) shows against an assessment this means that you have EITHER a confirmed deferral in place OR achieved a mark of zero (usually as the result of an absence). If you have had an email confirming that your deferral was processed there is nothing further that you need to do. 

Missing Assessment Marks

If there is a blank space against an assessment, this means the mark has not yet been received by the Student Services Centre.

• For some assessments (particularly dissertation, capstone and similar) this will be because marking is ongoing. This is perfectly normal, marks for these type of courses would never normally be available at this time of year and are only published in November.
• For other courses, marks may be missing because of the Marking and Assessment Boycott. We are unable to give further detail about these at this stage but would like to reassure you that we’re doing everything that we can to mitigate the impact of the boycott and publish complete final results in November.

Missing Course Marks and Grades

If there is a blank space against a course, this means that we are missing a mark for at least one of the components in that course and thus cannot calculate an overall mark for the course. 

Grades

Grades show against courses. You can interpret them using the list below:

DI = Distinction
M = Merit
P = Pass

F = Fail
FB = Bad Fail
NA = At least one component of assessment in the course has been deferred
AB = Absent from all components of assessment
I = Incomplete (i.e. you were absent from at least one component of assessment but have complete others)
