What else can you do?<\/p>\n
Take a practical approach. Consider whether it\u2019s possible to appeal<\/a> your final degree classification. There may be mitigating circumstances that you have overlooked and may prove decisive in an appeals procedure. However, don\u2019t assume that your appeal will be successful \u2013 talk through your options with your personal tutor and\/or Director of Studies. Act quickly and be hopeful \u2013 but realistic.<\/p>\n If you\u00a0have a conditional offer, you need to ring the company and let them know the situation. There may be no room for manoeuvre, but if you really impressed them at interview\u00a0then you never know, they may just honour the offer.<\/p>\n Don't panic and make rushed decisions! We often see students who look to applying for postgraduate study as a way to make up for the 2:2. Postgraduate study is a viable option post graduation but only if it fits with your wider career plan. Take your time, research industry needs and be absolutely sure you want to commit the time and energy into further study.<\/p>\n Getting a 2:2 might be a disappointment and it might mean having to re-think you options, but it doesn\u2019t mean automatic exclusion from a fulfilling career<\/a>. So, before panic and anxiety takes over - please come and talk<\/a> to us!<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":" Getting your degree from Bath\u00a0is a great achievement!\u00a0 But what if your results aren't quite what you expected?
