Here’s a plain‑English reading of that decision and what you can do next.
What the notice means
- "HUM FRAC 17/02/2022": an administrative code (probably the faculty/committee that considered your case) and the date of the decision (17 Feb 2022).
- "Appeal Declined": the appeal you submitted has been rejected. The committee will not change the original decision.
- "you did not comply with: 1. Rule A3.10 and A3.11 of the General Rules (2021).": the committee says you failed to meet specific rules in the university’s General Rules (2021). Those rule numbers are the formal reason for refusing your appeal—check the General Rules document to read the exact wording of A3.10 and A3.11.
- "No re-admission for UAP, minimum progression requirements not met.": you will not be re‑admitted to the UAP (the programme/status named “UAP” — e.g., Undergraduate Academic Probation / University Access Programme / other — check what UAP stands for at your institution). The committee says you did not meet the minimum progression standards required to continue.
- "Please refer to HC progression requirements.": they direct you to the progression rules for HC (likely the relevant course/qualification or faculty handbook) for details on progression and eligibility.
- "C. Shuping": the person who issued or signed the decision (an administrator or committee chair).
What to do next
1. Get the exact rule wording
- Find the "General Rules (2021)" document (institution website or registry) and read A3.10 and A3.11 to understand exactly what was not complied with.
- Find the "HC progression requirements" referenced (faculty handbook or programme guide).
2. Ask for clarification in writing
- Request a full written decision if you don’t already have it, including which modules/marks or actions caused the failure to meet the rules.
- Ask what “UAP” specifically refers to in your case.
3. Check appeal/complaint options and timelines
- Confirm whether there is any further internal review or external appeal available and the deadline to apply.
- If there is a student ombudsperson or representative body, contact them for support.
4. Consider alternatives
- If re‑admission is not possible, ask about options: transfer to another programme, repeat modules at another campus/institution, apply to re‑enter at a later date, or credits transfer.
- Speak to your academic advisor or faculty office about next steps and any mitigating circumstances you can submit.
5. Gather supporting documents
- If you plan to seek a review or make a fresh application, collect transcripts, medical evidence, or other documentation to support your case.
Sample short email you can send to the faculty registry
(you can adapt as needed)
“Dear [Name], I received the decision dated 17/02/2022 (HUM FRAC) stating my appeal was declined under Rules A3.10 and A3.11 and that I will not be re‑admitted to UAP. Could you please: (1) provide the full written decision and the precise wording of Rules A3.10 and A3.11, (2) clarify what ‘UAP’ refers to in my case, and (3) confirm whether any further review or appeal is possible and the relevant deadlines? Thank you, [Your name, student number].”
If you want, tell me your university and I can look up likely wording for A3.10/A3.11 and explain exactly what they require, or help draft a message to the faculty.
