I uploaded the wrong document/forgot to attach a document to my Silver/Gold submission

Applicants are reminded to check their work before submitting for assessment.

If you have uploaded the wrong document or forgotten to upload a document and you have submitted, there is no guarantee that we will be able to rectify this before your project is assessed.

If you do need to change your upload, please contact CREST Support. If your project has already been assessed then there is nothing we can do. If your submission has not yet been assessed, then we may be able to fix this, depending on how many other queries are coming through the system.

If you forgot to include your mentor signature this should not impact assessment of your project. Mentor signatures are not required to pass, although they do add weight to the project.
