Honours if 1 less unit of study than required; special consiederation or such?
This is probably really stupid and I am ashamed to be asking but here goes. I am really really passionate about animal rights and so was so enthused about the Cultrual Studies subject Animal/Human cultures that although I was all set and succesfully enrolled to Hons in hsty for 2013 I decided instead to do Diploma for extra year so that I can focus on animal rights. Atlhough so far HD average, I have been having really an awful year, bad family circumstances resulting in severe psychological problems, self harm and suicide attempt. I really really feel I am struggling with the workload which in the past I have been on top of. Espiecally with Youth Cultures subject since I have Asperger's and depression I cannot use any "real life experience" as we're supposed to. I really really wish I could withdraw (whilst it still is economically possible due to census date).
Does there exist any chance or such that a student may possibly get accepted to hons if they would have 42 instead of 46 credit points as long as they have good academic dispositions otherwise (marks, awards etc)? I know it is probably stupid to even ask such a notion, but I really wish something could be done - or an alternative assesment or something of the sort.
Did anyone have experience of success getting into Hons even though the requirement was not fully completed?
I am very ashamed to be asking such a question to virtual strangers and exposing my weakness that I am deeply ashamed of; it is out of desperation. Also please don't think I am wanting special consideration insofar as thinking myself special or above in anyway on the contrary I think myself exremely lowly and awful and needing of help.I beg in advance please don't be too judgmental in replies even though I deserve it as I am weak I just asking out of and hopelessness.
