Repeat exam results for all UL Students are out this week! Understandably, you may have some questions about your results or even about accessing your results. The team at UL Student Life are here to help and hopefully answer any questions you might have about results.
We’ve put together a quick guide with everything you need to know about results and where to turn to for support.
First things first, it's important to know that UL Student Life are independent of UL and are not involved in the process of exam results or repeats. You will need to contact Academic Registry with any specific queries you have about your actual results or registration. Here is the link to topdesk: Login (topdesk.net)
How can I access my results?
Module results can be viewed on the UL results website from 10am on Friday September 3rd 2026.
I forgot my password and can't log in to my account, how do I reset it?
To reset your password, follow these steps:
- Go to https://portal.office.com/
- Enter your email address
- Select 'Can't access your account?'
- Follow on screen instructions
How can I view my script?
If you are unhappy with your results the first step is to view your script. Exams: Viewing Your Scripts - UL
You must contact the department responsible for the module that you wish to view. Script viewings will be held from the 8th and 9th of September 2026.
Learn more about viewing days and how to apply.
How can I apply for a grade recheck?
If after viewing your script, you would like to apply for a grade re-check. Grade re-checks cost €25, but this fee will be returned if the grade is changed.
Please be aware that your grade can go up or down so it might be worth waiting until you have viewed your script to progress with the re-check. It's worth noting that your grade recheck is completed by the same person who originally marked your exam.
You can apply for a grade recheck up to two weeks after the date that your examination results are officially published. The process to apply and pay can be found on this link: Grading: Grade Recheck.
It takes up to three weeks for a recheck result to be issued. If your grade recheck is successful, the card you used to pay for will have the fee refunded to it.
Recheck of approved grades deadline
If you believe a grade has been recorded incorrectly, you can request a recheck of approved grades from 05th September to 15th September.
How do I appeal my grade recheck?
If you are not satisfied with the outcome of a grade recheck, you may appeal the decision within two weeks of receiving the recheck result. It costs €50 to appeal a grade recheck. Information and the application process can be found on this link. Grading: Appealing a Recheck.
I need help understanding my progression decision
If you did not reach the required QCA or clear a module during the repeat exams to move into your next year, you should have received an email with a progression decision from UL Academic Registry.
