Hello - the link you provided does not work. It returns the following error:

"The requested URL: /student.registry/statistics/summary/1.12ugawards/. was not found on this server.

Maybe you have misspelled the URL.

The case of any letters must be correct. Have you got a small letter where a capital letter is needed, or vice versa? Often the l (letter ell) is confused with 1 (the digit 1), and an O (capital letter oh) is confused with 0 (the digit zero). If this may be the case, try using an l (letter ell) instead of a 1 (digit one) or vice-versa. Or, try using a 0 (digit zero) instead of a O (capital letter oh) or vice-versa.

If you got this error after following a link, please report this error to the maintainer of the page that contained that link.

You could also try to search the University website to find the page you were looking for."

Could you please re-send the correct link?

Yours sincerely,
