You’ve done the hard work and now it’s time to check your results! Results are officially released at the end of each Semester or Term, find out when yours will be released.
The Semester 2 2024 release date is Wednesday 27 November 2024.
Where to find your results
Once your results are released, we’ll send an email to your student email address to let you know they’re ready.
To access your results in StudentOnLine, you can either:
- Click on the ‘My Study’ tile and view your results under your course on the ‘Academic History’ page; or
- Visit the ‘My Studies Summary’ in ‘My Summaries’, select your course and view your results in the ‘Subject and results details’ section.
In some cases, results may become visible earlier than the release date. If you check your results early and don’t see all your results, please be patient. There’s no need for you to contact ASK La Trobe or Student IT Support, your results will be released by the published results release date.
Note that your results may be amended after initial release, especially in the case of withheld or missing results.
If you’re waiting for results from a different study period, check our results release page or academic calendar for dates.
Understanding your grades
Sometimes your grades may appear a little confusing, so we put together this resource to help you understand your grades. Find out what the letter grades or percentages mean on your coursework, and understand what common administrative codes mean.
Things to do before your next study period
If you’re continuing studies, now’s a good time to check that you’re correctly enrolled!
What to do if things don’t go as planned with your results
Let’s be real, things don’t always go as planned. You might not get the results you wanted on your assignment, and that can be disappointing.
If this is you, take some time to put together a plan to make sure you’re taking care of yourself. Here are our top strategies for how to handle failure or disappointment at results time.
If you failed a subject, read our Failing a subject – next steps FAQ.
- If the subject is a pre-requisite for another subject, you will still need to pass it before being able to progress to the follow-on subject (i.e. you will need to repeat it if you do not pass).
- If it’s an elective, you might choose to complete the same subject again or another subject worth the same amount of credit points.
If you believe your results are incorrect you may request a review of your marks. Requests must be made within 10 working days of results publication.
To help you achieve your best, both academically and personally, La Trobe has a number of support services available, like:
- study support services, including the Learning Hubs
- academic support resources and workshops, covering themes like time management and tips for successful study habits
- wellbeing services, including counselling.
Calculate your WAM
La Trobe uses a Weighted Average Mark (WAM) calculation instead of a Grade Point Average (GPA). A WAM is an average mark that takes into account the credit point value of the subjects that you have completed. Learn how to calculate your WAM here.
