    Lawyer Needed for Appeal against Graduation Decision

    Okay, I thought I would be graduating after completing my last subject this year, but now the university have told me I have two more electives to complete. I have already put in credit transfer requests for subjects that I completed at another university but they are not accepting them. I am thinking about contacting a lawyer but unsure if there are lawyers that specialise in appeals against education institutions....anyone out there know....

    Thanks

    The student association should be able to advise you on the best course of action - generally there will be a committee within the faculty that decides on whether to accept subjects from other universities (i.e. it's not just one person's decision). Unless you can convince this committee that they have made a mistake, you will probably have to do the extra subjects.
