Got 0% despite approved Special Consideration

Hey everyone,
I recently got my result back for one of my subjects and ended up failing because I received a 0 for the final exam. The exam was a non-invigilated take-home essay with a 3 hour window.

During the exam I had internet issues that caused my submission to be late, and I missed the Canvas submission window, so I applied for Special Consideration. I gave them all relevant screenshots/reports needed. My application was approved and said “The circumstances have been noted and will be taken into account”, which is why I’m confused about the result.

Is it possible they:
-forgot to consider my Special Consideration?

- Or did they take it into account and still decide it wasn’t enough, which is why I got the 0?

-I’m also wondering if it’s possible they think I cheated or something, although I haven’t received any email about a misconduct and my marks weren’t witheld.

I haven’t contacted the subject coordinator yet, so I’m just wondering what my next steps should be and whether anyone has had a similar experience.

Thanks!
