RAP submission period 52 will open on Friday 1 May 2026.

The closing date for submissions is Thursday 7 May 2026 at 1.00pm UK time.

It is your responsibility to upload and submit the correct documents. OBU will not change submitted documents. Your Research Report and Skills and Learning Statement are uploaded directly into Turnitin. These cannot be replaced and what is uploaded is what will be marked. Other documents are uploaded and then submitted.

In order to avoid issues please refer to the information below and / or watch the ‘How to submit your RAP in May 2026 video for more information on the practicalities associated with your project submission.

If you try to log on or register before Friday 1 May 2026, you will receive an error message.

Step 1: Registration

You will need to go to the submission portal where you will need to create an account. Please see our privacy notice.

It is very important that you provide accurate information. Be very careful to enter your ACCA number and date of birth accurately. These are used to verify your identity and to check your eligibility.

If we need to, we will contact you by email. Please check your email account regularly. If you change email address update your account in the system.

You are also asked to provide a postal address. This is so we can send out degree certificates to successful students. This is likely to be in 8 or 9 month's time. If you move around regularly, it is vital you provide a postal address from which you can collect your certificate. Update the information in your account if necessary.

Please see the PDF document Registration on the Oxford Brookes RAP submission portal for further guidance.

Step 2: Submission

After you have registered you need to upload your documents and submit your project. Then you are taken to the payment page (see step 3). 

Please see the PDF document Submission of Research and Analysis Project in order to avoid serious issues.

Please take your time and follow the instructions carefully. 

There are limits to the size of file you can upload. Appendices are limited to 2MB and you must not upload copies of Annual Reports or Financial Statements.

Take care when uploading and submitting your documents - make sure you upload the correct version of the file. OBU will not replace the documents you have submitted. It is your responsibility to ensure that the documents you upload and submit are the ones you want marked.

When you upload your documents, the system converts the files and uploads the RR and SLS to Turnitin. This process can take up to 72 hours. It results in a change to the file names and can also change the file size. During the process, the file size will appear as 0.0B, please do not be alarmed by this or email us.

If you encounter any issues in the final hours before the deadline please email the programme administration acca@brookes.ac.uk outlining the issue and include your ACCA number. Please attach the documents you wish to submit as this demonstrates your intention to submit. Not attaching the documents may result in a refusal by the programme to accept your submission.

Step 3: Payment

You are required to pay a submission fee to Oxford Brookes University. The fee is £550.

Once you have submitted your project you will have the opportunity to proceed to payment. Please follow the instructions carefully.

It is not necessary to pay at the point of your submission however the University will not award any students their degree if there are outstanding fees owed. You can return to the submission portal and make a payment at any time within the submission period.

The deadline for payment is 31 August 2026. If OBU has not received payment by this date, your mark will not be considered by the examination committee and you will not receive your result. If you have failed you will not have an opportunity to resubmit.
