The solution

Qobi reads it all, and tells you what counts.

Connect your ALU accounts once. Every morning at 07:30, one short brief.

BRIEF · 07:30

Two things matter today.

Open facilitator accessOr your summative won’t be marked
Attend Web Infra, Thu 09:00One more miss and no summative
Meal formCloses Sun 12:00
  1. 1Catches what slipsForms, requests, deadlines hiding in email
  2. 2Knows ALU’s rulesHandbook, policies and your own situation
  3. 3Sees the knock-on effectsWhat one slip means for everything else
01Catches what slips

The small things, before they slip.

Recurring forms, facilitator requests, payment checks, scholarship windows. Qobi pulls them out of your inbox and Canvas and reminds you at the right moment, not all the time.

Meal form closes today at 12:00. It takes a minute.

QobiMon

Your facilitator asked you to open access to your summative.

QobiTue

Wells Mountain scholarship is open, and you’re eligible.

02Knows ALU's rules

Reads the handbook, so you don't have to.

Qobi knows ALU's assessment policy, scholarship terms and permit steps, and checks every item against your own courses, funding and residence.

Assessment policyScholarship termsFinance guideDGIE permit steps
ALU ASSESSMENT POLICY

Students are expected to attend all sessions. A student whose attendance falls below 85% will not be permitted to sit the summative assessment.

THE RULE
IFattendance under 85%THENcan't sit the summative
APPLIED TO YOU
BSE · Year 2ScholarshipStudy permit
Web Infrastructure86%
85% line
One miss left
03Sees the knock-on effects

One miss, four consequences.

A calendar sees one session. Qobi sees what it touches. Scroll to follow it.

01 · Academic

A fail, and a retake.

A third miss takes Web Infrastructure to 79%, under the 85% needed to sit the summative. Not sitting it counts as a fail.

ALU Assessment Policy · 85% to sit summatives
02 · Money

The scholarship won’t pay for it.

Retakes aren't covered, so about $165 comes from the student, not the grant.

Scholarship terms · tuition only
03 · Graduation

July 2029 becomes July 2030.

The retake waits for the next intake, and graduation moves a full year.

Progression policy · Jan 2026
04 · Permit

The permit gets harder to renew.

Enrolment letters need full-time standing. A delayed term puts the renewal at risk.

DGIE · annual renewal

Attending Thursday protects all four.

So that's the one thing Qobi asks for today. Not to scare you, just so you know which one to protect.

Read-only, by design.

Your inbox is private. Qobi treats it that way.
